Laser Eye Surgery review by Alpa Patel
Optometrist
 |
Alpa did not like wearing glasses and over time suffered from
dry eyes, so could only wear contact lenses for short periods of
time.
She finally decided to have laser eye
surgery three years ago and says the treatment has been life
changing. |
Alpa's story - LASIK
The main reason for having
laser refractive surgery
was because I became intolerant to my contact lenses. This was due
to my eyes being dry.
Over the years I became intolerant to my contact lenses for
shorter periods of time and did not like wearing spectacles. I
enjoy snowboarding and found this was incompatible with wearing
glasses.
I finally decided to opt for laser eye surgery three years
ago. My vision was as good as with spectacles the day after
treatment.
The actual procedure was not painful and completed very
quickly. I feel that having this treatment has been life changing
as I do not have to worry about my eyesight when taking part in
sports or social activities. I just wish I had it done
sooner.
