Anybody had lasik surgery?
Everybody I've known personally who has had it done raves about it, no bad
experiences at all...but none of them fly.
Thoughts?


One thing to consider is your age.
If you are in your 20's, early 30's, 50's or 60's, it may be worthwhile.
If you are in your late 30's or 40's, you eyes may soon or are in the
process of changing. In which case the benefits may be short lived.
Do you wanat to pay for the procedure twice in a short time span?
Also, there are occassions where the procedure may need to be repeated
to get the correction right.
