You lucky guys with lens problems, I have a freaking retina problem. Still waiting for retinal transplants, gaaaaah. I want good eyesight. Can't get past 20/35 now with glasses/contacts.
I'd say go for it. I know many people who've done it and they all love it. The risks are so slim, I'd rather chance lasik than wear freaking lenses my entire life.
And above your tomb, the stars will belong to us.
