I figure more people don't do it a) for the cost or b) they are afraid of it fucking up and being blinded
I got both done at once.

Took a few days to stop hurting ... mostly from the clamps they use to keep your eyes open than the actual lasik - they scratched me a bit - others say it's pretty painless.

The cost was $1200 for both eyes, total.
... there were no other fees charged at all for the visits or checkups ... and I did not opt for an optional upsell to plug your tear ducts - I just used a lot of artifical tears to keep lubricated, they're cheap and in every grocery store ...

How much does a good pair of glasses cost? and how often do you have to replace them when they're lost or break? + visits to the optomitrist...

Over several years, it's cheaper to just get Lasik. They even had a plan to get the surgery then make monthly payments over a year.

I'm pretty sure all the scary shit they make you sign is just for legal purposes - it's done by a machine so they can't really fuck up - and I've never heard of a single case of anyone having a bad experience.
