Hey Oystein,

Well Chris is correct?
I did and do have issues since my surgery.and did have to cancel my trip to South Africa. Now before I start?I went to a top doctor, one of the developers of it so it had nothing per say to do with him.
The surgery itself got complicated as my eye were too small for the machine, so they had to cut slits which heal on their own. On top of that I was soar for quite sometime due to the amount of pain killer injections that had to be given (apparently I have a high tolerance to pain killers..lol)

Now the surgery did go very well, speaking form a technical standpoint, however my left eye was "over corrected" too much and my right eye is still healing. What this means is my right eye is about 20/20 and my left eye I am not sure of the measurement but it is blurry?just out of focus where it screws me up. I also get headaches due to the strain on the right eye at times.

As Far as the halo effect... I do have it. I see the glow of street lights and traffic lights etc (like the "aura" surrounding them.)I also have hemorrhaging still.

The prognosis is 50/50 that the left eye will have to be touched up by another surgery and hopefully the halos etc will diminish. If I go back for another ?zap? it will be in a month or two to ensure the eye is healed and stable.

So the bottom line is do I regret it?
No I do not... The procedure was done right, I was a candidate and the doctor is top notch! Some things just do not always go as planned.

If you have any questions... Hit me up. I would be glad to talk to you or anyone else seeking advice on this.

Warm regards,
