I had this done in January of 2008. I had stigmatism and near sighted and far sighted. I would have stress headaches everyday from looking at a computer too long and i did not wear my glasses really ever except for hunting. I wish I did it years ago. I have no headaches or squintyness now. My right eye is great 20/20. The computer chose the "slice" (prescription) for my left eye and the doctor chose the "slice" for my right eye. i don't know why really but the doc's computer prescription setting was better then the computer generated prescription for the left eye. Not sure why he did it that way. They cut both in the same day. I used my employers 125 plan so I paid less tax. I also paid the doc an extra $100, you can haggle the price with him, so if i ever needed it done again it would be free. KNOWING how it's done now i'm a little hesistant to go back and get the left sliced again. I'll wait till it bothers me more. They don't tell you details of the procedure for a reason. At least mine didn't. It really is freaky and better you don't know everything the first time it's done. I went to Fladen http://www.fladeneyecenter.com/
