I have not had eye surgery b/c I have an astigmatism and am not a very good candidate, but my older sister and my father have both had it, with great results!!

They were both pretty much blind without glasses, my older sister wore bifocals. Now she doesn't wear anything at all. My dad still needs reading glasses for some things, but he can get away with the glasses you buy at the drugstore now.

If you go to a good eye surgeon(opthamologist?) you will have nothing to worry about(except the price).
