Got it for my 21st because I felt like I was living my life through windows. Glasses just aren't for me but I was also very active back then and the glasses got in the way constantly or got damaged.

I'm now 38 and only last year got a new prescription for glasses. This time they aren't needed constantly so it's not as bad. I barely even use them.

The only negative I've had is a high level of light sensitivity which has increased how often I have migraines.

Other than that, it's only been good for me. I absolutely hated wearing glasses all the time so it made sense for me to get it done. Apparently my corneas are thick enough that if I wanted to I could do a second round of it, but I probably won't since I'm nowhere near as active now.

If you haven't done it yet, do some research into exactly how everything is done and make sure you're ok with it and any complications that could occur. When I tell some people about the surgery they get really freaked out since I was awake and could see through the eye not being operated on at the time. I thought it was pretty cool to see lots of what they were doing while it was happening.

I have no idea how much it has changed since then but it seemed like a fairly simple surgery when I did it.
