I'm tempted to save up and finally get mine done this year. Been wearing glasses and contact lenses for too many years now.

/Jealous
I've got to get my eyes checked out sometime soon for glasses and contacts again doing it private (thanks Johny!) i'm gonna ask about the (very slim) chance of any laser surgery but i'm going to get laughed out the shop tbh... Just checked my contact prescription, hold your breathe guys: Left BC 9.50 DIA 15.0 Power +7.50 Cyl -2.50 x Axis 1.75 Right BC 9.20 DIA 15.0 Power +6.75 Cyl -2.50 x Axis 1.75 Not a sodding chance I do wonder how i can see at all without my glasses on sometimes =/ Everyone i speak to thinks they have crap eyesight at 3/4/5 etc... My "best" eye is worse than that... I guess i just don't know any better an my brain does a little bit of compensating?

I dunno, my friend was -7 in both eyes and they didn't bat an eyelid. Just went ahead and did it and that was 5 years ago. The impression I got was the stronger your prescription the more likely you are to have to settle with 20/20 vision rather than better-than-average and the recovery time is a bit longer. I think Wavefront which is the more advanced treatment increases your chances of perfect sight even more. Mine is astonishingly good even today.
Bizzarely today I got led to the wrong room for my 24 hour checkup. Because I didn't turn up with sunglasses and red eyes they thought I'd got it done a week ago. My eyes are fine already, I've been in town shopping most of the day Optical Express are free for the consultation so it might be worth going along for one even if you choose not to get it done. They also all do interest free credit to get you in the door.

I'm really happy for you! That must be something special waking up in the morning having a shower and thinking wtf i can see the tiles perfectly etc...
I'll drop in one of the clinics soon then, i reallllly would love to get this done, and my student loan is itching to be blown, i just feel i'll turned away not just because of power but from what i understand i've got a pretty bad astigmatism too 'Nout to lose with a free consultation though! Its great to see you healing so quickly too!
