WOW!

You just made my day. I had mine done earlier this year at the VA. It cost me about $300 in co-pays total for all the specialists visits before and after and the surgery itself and the eye drops, lots and lots of eye drops the first month.

Word of advice if you get it. Think twice about what correction you want.

I chose distance correction and wear reading glasses.

I almost think reading would be better for me. I spend MOST of my life inside and at the computer (I am a programmer), reading books, etc.

I can watch TV without glasses, and drive without glasses, but for reading I do need readers, and while they are cheap ($5.00 at drug store) it's annoying.

My point is just think about what you do MOST of the time.
