Laser eye surgery questions?

the procedure is actually pretty quick. for both eyes, the total time could be as little as a couple hours. prices will vary greatly, however, "you get what you pay for" can really apply here. recovery is pretty quick too. I was fine ina couple hours, and driving later the same day. the success rate is faitrly good, but no credible doctor will guarantee anything. the safety is pretty good in experienced hands. there are some drawbacks, but they are usually minor. if you research enough, you can find serious cases of problems, but they are rare. the only factor with age that I am aware of is that you dont want to do it too young, as your eyes may still be changing. and older patients can have other complications.
