Anybody got LASIK?

Thanks for the responses!

I wish I had mine done a bit sooner since my vision hasn't changed in the last 10 years or so. Vision deteriorating as I get in the later years is to be expected even with standard single vision glasses.

The biggest concern is the flaps since I play volleyball, and there is a greater chance something will happen if the ball hits me in the face! I have lots of vision issues playing volleyball, which is one of the reasons why I decided to get vision corrective surgery. With glasses, my FOV is limited. With contacts, my eyes were constantly drying and turning red. So with volleyball, my vision gets cloudy when I get ready to spike the ball... and miss.

So for those who had LASIK, did you guys have trouble with your eyes if you rub your eyes from itchiness, accidentally got smacked in the face (i.e., playing ball), etc.?
