Before I would consider it, talk to people who have had it done recently and those who also needed cataract surgery.

I had lasik surgery done in Virginia in 2000. I didn't have any problems with the surgery.
All that changed when I had cataract surgery in Michigan almost 3 years ago. When I had the lasik surgery, they did the eyes like bifocals -- one eye far and one eye near. I never had a problem with it as that is how my contacts lenses were for many, many years.
I still don't need glasses for distances. But, I have a hard time reading now. The Opthamologists in Michingan can't get the prescriptions right. I get headaches the minute I put on glasses. I can't use readers as the prescription in each eye is so different.
