I had it done eight years ago and it was money well spent. I had really bad eyesight and am still 20/20. The procedure is a breeze, and the recovery was quick. A series of drops for a few days and these goggles to sleep in. Talk to the doc but sunglasses and probably most importantly keeping sweat and dirt, wind out of your eyes, it shouldn't take long. I am sure the new procedure is quicker than what I had, the only adjustment was starbursting with bright lights at night. That went away. Good luck.
