agree with neil n entwisi, would work out cheaper in long run if it was NHS funded, thats obvious. in my case i cannot have it anyway, due to "Dry Eyes" result of n accident, but every 2 yrs i have to have n eye test n new specs if required, had about 5 pair in last 12/14 years, the cost of that would easily outweigh the cost of laser. shortsighted n stupid, but whats new?
n remember the £750 it cost ian, it would cost less on NHS cos they aint a business.
