I had lasik done in '06. I'm very pleased, the only issue being the halo effect. I work in television so I also notice the lack of contrast during the day as well. Those are the only bad effects though, and after wearing glasses for about 30 years it was great to finally take them off for good.

If you have a stigmatic eye you may not be able to be completely corrected. My left eye is 20/25 because of this. Luckily my right eye is now 20/15, so I'm pretty good there.

Find a reputable doctor. Never go to one of those $300/eye clinics!
