My mom got it in her 40s. Get a consult. Next to my education, best thing I bought. You got it 24hrs a day. Glasses suck. They fog up, you got to carry a spare, same with contacts.

I've been looking at doing it for years, just haven't pulled the trigger; mostly due to the expense. Look into a place that has the iLASIK. That uses a laser to do the initial cut as well as the shaping. The old way uses a blade to slide the cornea, the laser is more precise. I know a bunch of folks who have had LASIK, none have had a bad experience.

I have been considering it for a couple years, but what I am afraid of is 10 years down the road they discover it causes blindness or something else no one thought about now.

That's part of what's been keeping me from doing it too. My vision sucks but I've got it and wouldn't want to lose it. Rationally I think the risk is miniscule, the technology is pretty old, but the devil you know and all....
