    I couldn’t recommend Optical Express Stoke highly enough. The service has been fantastic from consultation to surgery, and now through the aftercare stage. All appointments have been fit in around my availability, and everyone is very helpful and friendly.

She was extremely helpful & welcoming. The whole team were knowledgeable about the different treatments available and always happy to answer any questions.

    I went for my first consultation in August 2021. I was a student nurse and was interested in getting laser eye surgery for around 2-3 years but wanted to wait till I finished my degree. I booked in to get LASEK with iDesign as I had thin corneas. I was worried about the healing process but I knew it would be worth it in the end. My surgery was at the Birmingham New Street branch in November 2021. On the day I met my surgeon before the procedure who spoke to me about all the risks and went through what would happen. Once we I signed consent for the surgery, I soon went into the room to get surgery. The two nurses in the surgical room were very sweet and friendly and helped calm me down before they started. I was very nervous. During the procedure I felt no pain, or discomfort as they numb your eyes. The procedure was very quick and they kept reassuring me throughout. Once the procedure was done they sat me up and walked me to the consulting room next door. They explained the healing process and what drops to use when and gave me a leaflet. I could see but it was hazy and blurry too. I was very light sensitive. On the way home, I slept as my eyes were very light sensitive and I wore sunglasses as I was told by the optician. When I got home I slept again for a few hours after putting in my drops. I woke up with my eyes feeling sore, and gritty. They were very uncomfortable and I kept my eyes closed predominantly for the first 48 hours. I had to call the helpline as it was extremely uncomfortable and they advised to use the lubricating drops more regularly. The third day was the worst for me, I was really uncomfortable, eyes felt extremely gritty and I could barely open my eyes. On the 4th day I went to get my contacts out but when I went, they said it was too early and it was actually my 3rd day. So there had been a mix up on the booking. I was a little annoyed to have made the trip from home to Birmingham to be told I couldn't get the contacts taken out so then it was a wasted trip. I was also originally told I could get the contacts out on Stoke but when it came closer to the appointment was called to say that was not possible as the optician was no longer able to come. This happened twice during the time from first consultation to surgery day. I was annoyed again because it meant I had to rearrange the travel arrangements and due to needing someone to come with me, meant I had to adjust my families plan yet another time. I went again on the following Monday to have the contacts removed and thankfully my eyes had healed enough. They gave me drops to take home and I was allowed to then come to stoke for my check ups. The time after having my contacts removed was a slow process. I had a lot of healing to do so did get fluctuating vision, blurriness, dry eyes, halos when driving, starbursts around light, and glares. These symptoms have since resolved. These symptoms were felt more while driving and especially while driving at night. The only symptom I now experience regularly is dryness. But with drops being supplied by Optical express its not the worst symptom to be dealing with. Following check ups were good at Stoke branch. Was able to find parking at John Street car park and was always quick with friendly staff. I was discharged after 2 months and told my next appointment would be a phone call in a months time to check everything was going well. I would do it again. Has made wearing a mask at work so much easier and with covid not going anywhere will probably be wearing them for a while. I would take the discomfort, gritty feeling, the pain, everything all over again to get the perfect eyesight I have now. Well worth the money!
