I have asked different docs about this and it comes out about 50-50.
I have friends who have done it and they couldn't be happier. OTOH...
What one biz friend told me, whose wife is an eye doc, is that there is not enough long term knowledge about how the surgery works out over time. If it's good when you are 25, 30, or 40 that's OK. But since eyes age along with everything else, no one knows how someone who gets surgery at say, 35, will be at 55 or 60. Or older. do you wind up needing more surgery later? No one really knows.
I have astigmatism and could benefit from the surgery, but am not inclined to take a chance with eye surgery without the procedure having a longer history.
