I had the precursor to Lasik 18 years ago. It was laser called PRK and was not even legal here yet. I had to go to Canada. I am still 20/20 in one eye and 20/25 in the other. I have not spent a single day regretting doing it. That old procedure made you blind for about a week after and the only bad thing was when I walked into the ladies room at the Detroit Airport. I couldn't see anything anyway.
