How has it been? I’ve heard that people who’ve undergone this operation tend to see artifacts around bright objects like lightbulbs.

I’m not confident about the skills of a surgeon being able to shape and gloss the eye’s cornea to what it would be, naturally.

I had mine done in 1999 at age 56, with 20/120 vision and now I am 20/15 in both eyes and wish I'd done it sooner.

The doctor does nothing except set the computer and the program does it all.

It took then 38 seconds per eye to complete the procedure and about 4 days before I had perfect vision.

I'm still 20/15 but had to get old men type reading glasses {death is the only cure for old age and I prefer to wait}.

I love being able to see everything in the woods but the best reward is being able to read the time on the clock in the middle of the night without trying to find glasses.
