    I had my eyes done with Opitimax my prescription was -8 so I was well and truly blind as a bat. My vision is now perfect and I cant praise Optimax enough. The Doctor who did my eyes\was fantastic and really made me feel at ease. It is the best £1000 I ever spent being able to wake up every morning and see clearly is amazing. I would highly recommend Optimax for their professional service and also do not do peoples eyes jus for the money. My Mumand a friend had appointments with Optimax and with my friend discovered during examimation they had a serieous eye problem and referred them admediately to Hospital and with my Mum they said her eyes were not suitable to have lazer treatment. This is very reasurring to know they are not just out to take your money but will only do the treatment if your eyes \are in good healthy condition and that you will benifit from the procedure.

    oooooooooooo, how cheap :)

    I've just started looking into this and am considering having it done in the next few months. Anyone here bought off Ebay & got any comments? I'm a bit apprehensive but could be easily persuaded by some personal opinions/experiences. :)

    Optimax have very good feedback on Ebay!

    I also had a great experience with Optimax (though I didn't go through ebay). I also know 2 people they have refused to treat because their prescription was unsuitable. Which reassured me that they won't just treat anyone who turns up with the cash.
    When I had my loft converted back into a loft, the neighbours came around and scoffed, and called me retro.

    I am planning to have Laser Surgery in the next 2 or 3 months and I am looking at Optimax as the main contender for doing my eyes. The price is £895 for epi-lasik with 4 to 5 day recovery, or £1290 for lasik with next day recovery. This is for both eyes. I am planning on going to the clinic in Birmingham. Has anyone any comments about this clinic or the deals presently available? I know Optimax are not presently offering any Interest-Free.

    Thanks in advance..

  • had my eyes done with optimax (lasek) 3 years ago. Under corrected my right eye but didnt want to go through it all again. Still dont have to wear glasses which is great but there can be complications so look into it carefully.

    Hi,
    I couldn't comment on whether or not they are the best, but I used Optimax in Glasgow and thought the service was excellent.
    Feel free to ask me any questions.......
