He said he never felt pain like that before.

Im going to wait it out a couple of years and see where all this surgery leads to before I take the leap. I have 20/400 vision, so I would LOVE to have it, but my friend's story made me nervous about either option.

I think you mean RK!
I have friends in the Air Force, and they have had lasik done.

They do not allow the very old Method of RK, because a blow to the head can cause you to go blind... RK is where the make several cust to reshape the eye with a knife...
