Accuvision Laser Eye Correction....

Accuvision offers the most promising and exciting development in the world of corrective vision surgery - LASIK. LASIK, or Laser Assisted In Situ Keratomileusis, is an innovative type of laser vision correction.

The procedure, which is performed on an outpatient basis under local anesthesia, corrects moderate to high levels of nearsightedness, farsightedness, and astigmatism. LASIK is a simple, fast and highly predictable surgical procedure, performed in an appropriate sterile environment. In this procedure, an automated microkeratome is used to create a corneal flap and the excimer laser is then used to ablate the cornea. LASIK certainly proved to be far superior than its predecessors because of minimal discomfort and faster recovery.

Until now, visual disorders including nearsightedness, farsightedness and astigmatism had been treated with excimer lasers. As a rule, this treatment had no effect on the visual acuity. Patients did after the surgery without glasses or contact lenses, as well as they did before the surgery with their visual aids.

But now, a new approach to refractive surgery - Wavefront Guided Custom LASIK - is primed to transform vision correction, yet again! It can be said that Wavefront technology is the magical ''pot-of-gold at the end of the rainbow'' to getting better than perfect vision. Instead of just correcting defocus (spherical and cylindrical) errors, we can now take a wavefront image - literally, a 'fingerprint' of each person's optical pathway - and use the information to reduce or even eliminate higher order aberrations. So, for the first time, we have technology that can potentially achieve better than 20/20 vision.

Review by Mrs. Salam Hashoush Posted on 16/11/2010 Rating: 5/5 Clinic: London Customer Service: 5/5 Value for Money: 5/5 Clinical Team: 5/5 Technology: 5/5 Comments: I have been wearing glasses since I was 15; The smallest things I could not do without glasses or lenses, such as checking the time in the middle of the night or seeing which bus is coming, or not be able to have a good swim and see at the same time. I was really annoyed with glasses especially that I started to develop a skin rash because I was allergic to plastic. I have changed glasses so many times, so it was time to move on to contact lenses. For a while I thought everything was ok while I was using lenses but I soon have discovered that lenses are night mare for my eyes. It was uncomfortable, itchy and my eyes got infected several times unexpectedly. Of course years have passed by and I always feared surgery or even laser treatment. But last year my mum has surprised me and she took me to Accuvision Laser Eye Clinic in London. The team was very supportive and I was told every little detail of the procedure and what can happen after the laser treatment. It was very comforting that I could ask any questions and have a check up from time to time to see how my eye sight is progressing. On the day of the surgery, I felt very nervous but the team was great and literally held my hand while the laser treatment took place. The surgery was uncomfortable but their patience and kind talk made me feel much better. The team is really professional and very helpful; I would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone. When the next day I have opened my eyes all I could think of that I have got my perfect vision back, which I did not have since I was 15. It is worth every penny and to be honest if anybody thinks of what silliness we spend most of our money on, this is compared to it nothing. I have no words to describe how does it really feels when you have your perfect vision back. I am lucky because I know. Thank you Accuvision Laser Eye Clinic

Review by Louise Howard Posted on 17/11/2010 Rating: 5/5 Clinic: Birmingham Customer Service: 5/5 Value for Money: 5/5 Clinical Team: 5/5 Technology: 5/5 Comments: I had worn glasses from the age of 8 and my prescription before the surgery was -5 and -6. I couldn't function without my glasses or contact lenses. I had considered laser eye surgery over the years but the prospect of messing with my eyes was daunting - better short sighted than blind - right? Two family members had successful surgery at the Solihull Accuvision. Hearing about their amazing results gave me the push to make an appointment to find out more. I walked into the initial consultation feeling very apprehensive but right from the start I was put at ease. There was no sales pressure, just facts. I made the decision to go ahead as soon as I left the consultation. On the day itself, the calm, efficient atmosphere put me completely at ease. The staff gave me every confidence, being both reassuring and efficient. The surgery took 10 minutes, was pain free and just so easy. As soon as I sat up from the surgery I could see an improvement in my vision, and as the hours went by I continued to see an improvement. After 24 hours my vision was near 20:20 and at the 4 week check it was better than 20:20. Two months on I can honestly say the surgery has been life changing, worth every penny - and the price really isn't that high, especially when you consider the cost over the years of contact lenses, and glasses with the cost of thin lenses for high prescriptions, not to mention cleaning solutions, prescription sunglasses, eye tests etc. Make an appointment today. You won't regret the amazing feeling that comes with being able to see when you open your eyes each morning!
