[QUOTE=Buzzsaw;2369659]Anybody here had LASIK done before? I've been wanting it for a while now and wanted to hear from some people that have had it. Things I'm curious about would be price, level of pain/discomfort, and obviously results. Thanks.[/QUOTE]

Best money I have ever spent in my life.

My contacts were in the -6's. I had it done over a year ago. My doctor down here in FL (Dr. Srini Mutuyala), was a little pricey but was well worth it for this guy, around $5k total. Pain/Discomfort, none. Once it was over, I did not open up my eyes at all, keep them closed. I went to sleep (took a Xanax before surgery, given by Dr.), woke up around 10 p.m. and everything was pretty clear. You have to make sure you continually use the rewetting drops and also use the medicine, which is a little nasty, but you only use it for a week.
