Lucky!
I wish I could afford that!
Depends on your age and what your prescription was before Lasik.
If you are around 45 or older, and used to take your glasses off to read, you have now lost
that advantage and will have to use something to help you see your sights. If you are younger,
you really shouldn't have any issues other than dry eye which usually goes away and is controllable with lubricating drops until it does.
Now a few months after surgery I am still left eye dominant and couldn't hit the broad side of the barn because I was seeing 2 front sights if I kept both eyes open.
I did LASIK about 20 years ago. I went from 20/400 (near sightedness) to 20/15 (better than normal) and I never had any issues like dry eyes, night time "halos", etc.
Fast forward to middle age... I can still read a flea's tattoo from across the street,
still shoot nicely, but anything "small" that's closer than 18" from my face requires "cheaters". At work they actually supply safety glasses with x2.0 magnifiers at the bottom of the lenses.
I keep threatening my wife that I'm just gonna be one of those "cool old guys" and just wear my bi-focal safety glasses everywhere, all the time.
