I had it done a few years back (
Atlantic Eye Institute of Jacksonville: Ophthalmology, LASIK, Optometry, Cataracts ), started wearing glasses when I was 5, (I'm 46 now)also went back & forth with contacts. All I can say is WOW!!!! I had the PRK and love it, I was using reading glasses with contacts, but haven't needed them since and I'm still amazed when I go someplace, that I had gone to for years and notice stuff I never noticed before.. The only negative I had was I had to adjust my pool game to actually being able to see
My mother had lasik at age 60, she is 74 now and still very happy..
