What was your vision like before having Lens Replacement and how it affected your life?
My vision was quite poor and I had been wearing reading glasses for 17 years. In the last 18 months I had noticed my distance vision was going, and I couldn’t read car numbers plates etc.
The inconvenience of having to pick-up glasses to read things, in particular with my job as a Chartered Accountant and in my leisure time; restoring motorcycles, having to hang glasses off the end of my nose and risking them falling off; was just a big fuzzy mess.
Why did you choose to have your Laser Lens Replacement procedure at Centre for Sight?
At my annual routine appointment with my Optician, they said I was going to have to wear glasses all the time. Giving me the options of either Varifocals or two pairs of glasses. I then thought to myself, I don’t want to wear glasses all the time. Fortunately, the Optician recommended coming to you, which was great; as you are only 5 miles away from where I live.
So, when I came down here and had all the tests done, and was told I was suitable for Laser Lens Exchange with AT Trifocal lenses, which meant I could have my short and long distances corrected. I was ecstatic and went ahead to have it done.
On the day of the first operation, I was quite apprehensive at first; although not nervous. But amazingly it was so easy and comfortable, the staff made me feel really relaxed and had it done with no drama. So, when I had the second one done, I had no worries; what so ever and everything was fine.
What was your Centre for Sight experience like?
It has been really good, right from day one when I made the first phone call. Very professional and made me feel totally relaxed. I was well informed on what was going on, as staff talked me through everything. Therefore, I am very satisfied with the whole experience at Centre for Sight.
There was not a particular thing that I could not do before that I can do now, just that everything has been made so much easier. Hence not having to worry about losing or misplacing my glasses.
I am ever so grateful, thank you so much.
