Laser vision correction

I've recently been getting very annoyed at my vision, it's not bad enough that i can't drive, but it definately gets in my way for normal daily activities (identifying people by faces when they are standing 20+ feet away, reeding some signs, etc).

Working in this field, our vision is very important to all of us, so this is a double edged sword. It's likely that the surgery will improve my vision, but there's a chance it will go wrong and lead to worse vision, or blindness.

I'm just wondering what others in the same field thought about it. Too much of a risk to mess with it, or the benefits outweigh the (small) risk?
