I was going to have LASIK, but I found out that my cornea is abnormally thin and that it would be very dangerous for me to have the procedure (or any others similar). That kinda sucked, but I'm happy they at least were willing to tell me instead of take my money and hope for the best. I would advise getting a second opinion before having something like LASIK for this reason; it's dangerous for some people who have abnormally shaped corneas.

In that procedure, they completely scrape off the outer layer of the cornea, hit the inner layer with the laser, then fit a protective lens to protect your eye while the outer layer grows back over the next 3-4 days. Now I'm better than 20/20. Oh wow, I didn't know about that. How is the procedure/recovery in terms of pain, cost, etc?
