i explained why i had cancelled my oppointment and that i wanted to know more about the enhancment that i had to have done.

Dave said he had it done on both eyes and he was ok but is that sales talk again i don't know !! after not doing my home work 1st time round.

 I am more alert this time.

I asked Dave about the enhancment and what was involved as i don't know what they would be doing.

A clamp is put into my eye and some drops and then the lazer and that the flap is not lifted .

But i have an appointment with OE on Monday to speak with the surgeon who is called Dr Khan so i can ask him about the treatment and if MMC is going to be used.

If anyone can think off any questions i should ask him i will be very greatfull.

Has anyone had any experience with them?

I had the High Profile treatment due to my high prescription (-10) in Oct 2009 and I couldn't be happier with the result. No complications, no dry-eye, no second treatment required, no nothing! Just perfect vision. I can hardly believe it!

 

London Vision Clinic is more expensive than anywhere else I researched but worth every penny. I agree that he doesn't seem to have many reviews and I don't know why... I don't think I could have chosen a better surgeon!

                          i will really look into all this and will ask the surgeon if MMC drug is going to be used, i have cancelled my opointment so it will also give me time to think what is the best thing to do.

What are the side affects to MMC.

What does concern me is that had I not refused to go ahead, the clinic were still fully prepared to carry out the surgery, & I possibly would have ended up with an unsatisfactory result. I think anyone with a less than straight forward script should be very careful  & not rush blindly (no pun intended !) into making a decision.

 

The clinic for my next consultation has requested that I leave out my lenses for 5 days, but regardless of what they say i am not going to make any decisions on the day. 

 

ps Thanks for this brilliant site - very helpful 

                  thanks so much for your help, yes i saw the surgeon about 5 mins before i had my 1st opp and when i signed the consent form, i remember my son saying ( dad you still can change your mind ) but i had parted with the money and worked myself up for it, But i would not remember the surgeon if i was sat next to him on a bus, i should have done my home work.

The procedure i am having next week is Wavefront-Lasek enhancement-left eye and my surgeon is called Dr Khan.

When i had the first opp i was always told my eyes were 20/20 monovision after but after my check up last week i asked him to write down my prescription my right was +0.50 / - 0.25 x 15 and my left 0.00 / - 0.75 x 45 and that i had a astigmatism in my left and that it needs an enhancment and it would be sore about 4 days, never mentoned MMC which frightens me. i will do what you have suggested and check it out and let you know on what as been said. thanks again.
