I had LASIK done about 6 months ago. My right eye ended up 20/15 but my left eye ended up being +1 and has some astigmatism that it never had. I suspect they screwed up and gave me the wrong correction in my left eye. Good news is it can be corrected, the bad news is I had to live with an eye that is useless for small text on a monitor. It has been very aggravating but not aggravating enough to go buy a prescription pair of glasses just for the correction in one eye. Also keep in mind all of the follow-up visits you need to do to keep your "lifetime correction" warranty so get your Lasik done at a place near your house.

It sounds like I am being way too negative here. I would do the process again but I would insist on getting full pupil dialation before the procedure. With this correction I will be extremely satisfied but all told it took at least 40 hours for follow up visits including travel time and getting everything set up ahead of time. With my right eye doing all the work and looking at monitors all day it gives up at about 8pm where I can't easily read a 15" laptop without eye strain.
