My Dad had it done (Score 2)

My Dad had the procedure about a year ago, and it worked great for him. He had it done at Kaiser Permanente in Arleta, CA. The procedure cost him $2500, and it was worth it for him. This is how the procedure is done, its actually pretty simple. You are awake through it all. They cut your cornea off with a laser, rotate it, then set it back on the eye. And thats it. My Dad had to have his right eye done twice because of an astigmatism. He said he felt no pain, it was just a wierd experience is what he said. It took him about 2 weeks before he could see properly (mostly because of the astigmatism) but now that both eyes are healed he sees fine. He is a graphic artist, so he used to have to wear glasses all the time while working on images, but no longer. And now the only time he needs to wear glasses is to read real small print, anything smaller then newspaper print.
I also have a friend who's mother had it done, and she healed fine in about 2 days. Both my Dad and my friends mother have a reported 20/20 vision, and they are both very happy that they had it done. Oh, they both went to the same hospital to have it done.
