    Anyone here did this, or your relatives did the procedure? How did it go?

    One of my teachers in high school had it done and he was back to teaching in two days. He said there was no discomfort or anything like that. Good luck with it :)

    One of my friends just had this surgery and she faced a little problem afterwards. Though I am not really sure if it was some problem because of the operation or if she didn't take some precaution. I will try to get in touch with her and let you know. :)

    My brother had it done and he is very happy with it. I when for the pretest and the lot, just did not like the guy who was gonna do the laser. He looked a bit shaky, so I decided to postpone it till I find one I trust.....:D:D

    I'm actually more concerned about long term effects, since the procedure involves removing part of the eye tissue, so I read some reports saying over long term it might cause to irreversible effects in like 10 years

    I dont think its been around long enough for people to know the long term effects.

    Same with mobile/cell phones - we won;t know if they cause brain damage as they haven't been on the earth long enough :)

    I still prefer my eyes the way it is.. I don't have any relatives who come out with this kind of operation.

    I had it done about 2 years ago I have 20/20 vision now.

    It was freaky watching my eyes get operated on.. the scariest thing I’ve done scarier then my vasectomy.

    I noticed the improvement the next day, but it took about a week for my eyes to feel O.K.

    You will see costs for around $400 but that is per eye and only for certain types of eyes, usually it is about $1,500 for both eyes, I paid extra and had the night enhancement done it was worth it I don’t see halos at night any more. Mine was about $2000 with the night enhancement.
