It has been perfect for me. I have had no changes. Of course, as I age, I expect changes. I also co-manage refractive surgery and have seen hundreds of successful patients. It doesn't hurt, generally. There is a bit of pressure, but no real pain if you have Laser eye surgery. The PRK version (where no flap is cut) is a little more uncomfortable for the first few days following the procedure. I've seen several people who said they were in some pain, but healed just fine. I used to wear both glasses and contact lenses. I had laser eye surgery done and it's the best decision I've ever made. I can see clearly, no squinting, no driving with glasses anymore. I can read road signs, see the individual leaves in the trees (they're not just a blurry mess anymore). It's also nice to be able to see what time it is when I wake up. The procedure is painless (although a bit uncomfortable) but takes less than 15 minutes. Highly recommended.

As with any surgery, there is a definite risk incurred. You must be screened for suitability and examined by the doctor personally. (Not the sales team to mislead you to get expensive package deal). If you are a suitable candidate, the risk maybe :- 1.)Dy eyes (temporary) 2.)Regression/ enhancement 3.)Infection (3-5/20,000 for the next 3 weeks) 4.)Flap/ complication of treatment (rare) 5.)Miscellaneous A suitable candidate for Lasik surgery, it depends on:- 1.)Your corneal thickness 2.)Your power 3.)Your age 4.)A centre with a doctor who is examining your eyes personally 5.)Torough explanation to suit your lifestyle Always insist on seeing the doctor performing the surgery for you. It is the due deligent of him or her to present the risk and benefit to you in detail personally.

A flap of your cornea (the lens of your eye) is cut and peeled back then a laser is used to burn microscopic bits of the underlying material into a shape that allows light to focus properly, then the flap is laid back down. You are awake for the entire procedure as they only provide drops to numb the eyes. It is completely painless even afterward with only a severe sensitivity to light as the main discomfort.
