Hi,
Looks like in most cases the results are positive. I had the surgery about 3 years ago. Tried Mono vision but couldn't get the hang of it so had both eyes fixed for distance vision (3.5 ft on-wards!). They just pulled back the flap and zapped the eye a bit more to give distance vision in that one too.
Now I still need to use reading glasses for up close.
A bit of a loss in the contrast division
On cloudy days and at dusk the vision is problematic as well, using polarized sun glasses fixes the issues (lightly shaded).
I am still looking for clear no power polarized lenses, I feel these may fix the dusk issue better than the shades (perhaps even the contrast issues as well).
On windy dusty days I miss my glasses! Though its nice to be able to see right from the moment you open your eyes.
If I had to do it again I would probably pass. IMHO the utility function of the surgery is lower the older one gets due to age onset near vision issues.
