just out of interest what was your pre-op error?, iam in a similar position and very confused. My prescription from my optician is R=sph -3.25 cyl -1.5 and L= sph -3.25 cyl -2.0 which reading the guidlines would just pass me, however i went to a lasik clinic and was told my astigmatism was -3.0 and -2.75 (sph remained the same)which would obviously not pass the class 1 if i went through with the surgery.

Does anybody know exactly how your eyes are tested for the class 1, is it similar to opticians or do they use topography scanning like at the lasik clinics?

Many thanks
