Coming Soon! Which clinics have which laser… and just how good are they?!

I keep getting asked about how to choose a good laser eye surgery clinic and what to look out for when considering LASIK.
So, as you may know, there are FOUR key things to look out for when considering laser eye surgery and picking out a laser clinic for vision correction:
1. Laser technology used (Your surgeon CAN’T get better results than the laser can deliver)
2. Your surgeon (Your laser will only perform as well as the surgeon ‘driving’ it! And even then, never better than the manufacturer made it capable of – see point 1))
3. The clinic itself (Will they take good care of you before, during and especially after your treatment?)
4. The price you will pay (You don’t always get what you think you are paying for)
So, as requested, I will posting a map of all the laser eye surgery clinics in the UK, PLUS which laser they use, PLUS what results those lasers are capable of delivering!!
The truth is out there… and will be here very soon!

If you are looking for a place in the States, the best place I have found is Lasik-1. The website (my2020.com) answered most of my questions and the doctors are all great. All their centers are new so they have the most up to date technology.
