What have been the problems? How much of a problem is it? When did it occur? Are you involved in any litigation?

My uncle had it done. He had one eye done for distance and one eye done for reading. It had been 2 years now and he looks dorkier than he did when he had to wore glasses! He looks at the computer screen within 5" from it, and when he reads, he looks as if he has a glass eye and can only see out of one! He had one of those specials deals done.
Out of all the poeple i know who has had it done, he is the only one I know who is having problems.
I would recommend not going to one of the cheapy places, I don't think they know what they are doing. Pay a little more and get some quality work done. Make sure you get some references!

I had the surgery in canada about 8 years ago and the company has since then gone out of business, so I wouldnt be able to do anything if i wanted to. Anyway, I have a starlight affect around lights at night. During the daytime i'm fine.

I had mine done about 5 years ago in Metro Detroit. I was a -5 perscription in both eyes. I can now see 20/20. The only problem I have now is that my eyes are sensitive to bright sun light. I have to have a good pair of sunglasses on me at all times, which is better than having a thick pair of glasses on all the time.

Wow, I get those halos around lights at night too but I never had a surgery. Mine is just from getting older I think. They have glasses (they are polarized) that help with that. I guess that defeats the whole purpose of the surgery then.

I see a sort of halo around lights when driving in the dark, or in a dark theater. I guess I'm use to it now and I am able to drive in the dark. That's kind of unavoidable. It is worth it though to not have to wear contacts anymore.
