5/5 Lyndsay S. 7 months ago on Google
My
20/20
vision
was
affected
by
COVID
at
the
end
of
2022
which
led
me
to
glasses
in
January
2023.
Whilst
I
didn't
mind
the
look
of
them,
I
found
them
very
impractical
during
my
shifts
at
work
(Ambulance
Service)
and
after
a
number
of
hours
sore
on
my
ears.
I
knew
that
at
some
stage
during
the
year
I'd
get
LASIK
before
renewing
my
C1
Driving
Licence
(and
having
to
legally
declare
glasses).
I
started
to
look
at
the
various
Clinics
in
NI
but
was
always
drawn
to
Optimax,
Belfast.
I
booked
a
consultation
for
the
end
of
March
and
shortly
after
realised
they
were
offering
a
£990
per
eye
deal.
Fiona
(Clinic
Manager)
rang
me
and
introduced
herself
prior
to
my
appointment.
During
the
consultation
I
met
both
Fiona
and
Grainne
(Optometrist),
and
whilst
I
was
offered
any
treatment
I
wanted,
Grainne
wanted
to
see
me
again
in
June
to
be
sure
my
prescription
hadn't
changed.
I
attended
again
in
June
and
was
re-assessed
and
given
the
green
light
for
treatment.
I
booked
for
September
(could
have
had
sooner,
but
needed
Annual
Leave
approved
etc).
So,
on
5th
September
I
had
LASIK
and
20hrs
later
at
my
first
check
up
I
had
(very
nearly.....could
get
3
out
of
5
letters)
had
my
20/20
back.
My
vision
(6
days
later)
has
continued
to
improve
and
I
look
forward
to
the
final
results.
I've
had
no
pain
at
any
stage
and
just
some
mild
annoyance
of
"cutting
onions"
and
"an
eyelash
in
my
eye"
sensations.
Dr
Damani
was
my
Surgeon
and
was
more
than
pleasant
and
professional.
As
someone
who
HATES
anything
eye
related
the
treatment
was
more
than
bearable.
