It all depends if you are long or short sighted, if you are short sighted its an easy procedure as it takes cells from the front of the eye to make it flatter and doesn't involve surgery, for long sighted it involves cutting a flap in your cornea and lasering behind the eye. I am long sighted and had it done to one eye a few years ago, it didnt work and my eye has regressed back to what it was, i have also been left with slight blurring in my vision in that eye, hence I never got the other one done.
I have a friend who has had the same procedure done and it worked brilliantly for him so its the chance you take. I would say its the most painful thing I have ever had done, so if you are long sighted think carefully before you have it done.

The major con is that if things don't turn out right, you will not be able to get back the clear and crisp and clear vision you had with glasses or contact lenses. This process can actually make a small number of people worse off than before. The pro is that if it does work, you can be free of glasses and contacts, but there are also side effects, like sensitivity to light, seeing halos, etc. I would never consider this procedure.

Pros:
-Enjoy the rest of life without the hassle of glasses/contact lenses (waking up, saving time in the morning with contact lenses)
-If successful have effectively removed a disability
Cons:
-Procedure could go wrong, small chance of blindness or other side effects, quite a lot of procedures result in dry-eye symptom requiring drops (there is no permanent solution for dry eyes)
-Relatively expensive for a good specialist

Not sure of the pro's and con's. Just make sure you don't try to find a basement bargain. Your only born with 2 eyes. Once they go they go.

I not sure, but I'll keep an eye open for you and see what I can do. If you are a teacher you can try it on the pupils first.
