Guys, if you have never had Lasik, or never looked into the surgery, you really shouldn't give the OP false information. Like someone mentioned, your result will completely based on two things: your surgeon, and your fit. I have been nearsighted since the 3rd grade, with astigmatism, and getting Lasik done 1.5 years ago was the best decision I have ever made. Here are a few facts most people don't know: 1. Noone has ever gone blind from Lasik surgery - this is a old wives tale 2. You have a higher chance of getting infection by wearing contact lenses than getting Lasik surgery 3. Almost all complications are due to inexperienced surgeons, and they are all correctable 4. You will still need reading glasses when you get old, lasik doesn't correct that. Once your vision have stabilized, your eye sight will not get worse after Lasik (besides the need for reading glasses at old age). This is a surgery, so find the best surgeon in your area. Find someone who has done over 10,000 pairs of eyes, fly to another city if you have to. Don't try to save money -- it's your eyes! I did mine in NYC, and it cost me around $5k for both eyes (2-3x the going rate), but I also had one of the best surgeon in the area. I had dry eyes for quite a while after surgery, but it went away after 6 months or so. And I only experience dry eyes when I am on the computer the entire day (when you are using the computer or watching TV, you don't blink as much), if I am out playing sport, it's perfectly fine. But keep in mind, your eyes take a while to heal completely -- it took mine 6-12 months, and now my dry eyes are gone. Halo and glares are also typically caused by dry eyes, you put a few eye drops in, and they will be gone. And with newer technologies, halo and glares could pretty much be eliminated now days. Hope this helps with your decision. I definitely recommend it.
