Good idea to ask questions on this.. I had mine done 2 years ago back in August, and I LOVE IT!!!!!!!
It is very very good to do research on the procedure, to make sure it will fit in with your lifestyle, as compared to PRK. Also make sure the doctor you go to has a good reputation and is not one high on the lawsuit list ... I am not sure where you live, but I am in Albuquerque NM and it was worth the 8 hour drive for me to go to Denver CO, the overall reputation was better, cost was better and I am not regretting having it done at all!!!
Good Luck... just remember, to research the doc you would have doing it.
Just read the brochures. I had mine done a while back and I love it... but then again a friend of mine did the same thing and now she has to put eye drops in her eyes every few hours because of complications of the surgery she had years ago. It's a risk, but its up to you to decide whether or not the benefits outweigh the costs.
