I've always wanted one, bit the price tag, and Ordered on amazon.
Should be here on Tuesday!

I never tried them on, so who knows how they will look! :p
 
I havent watched it yet jessica, hope to do so tonight. My tilting roof rack is the only way to get my bikes onto the roof. Wasnt cheap though!

I can imagine it wasn't cheap but it is badass and totally serves a purpose.
 
Did/does it hurt?

The procedure itself did not hurt much like Sylon said, the only pain was in second night/third day, which is what almost everyone goes through, the doctor even warns about it multiple times. The pain is caused from the healing of the cornea, the contact lenses are just "bandaids" that are meant to stay in 24/7.

It's pretty much the best investment I could do. I'm very active and contacts/glasses were becoming a hassle. Finally the freedom of being able to wake up and see the clock at night, nothing like it.

I read that as "I'm very attractive…" :D
Lasik was by far the best money I ever spent. Had it done in 2004 and although it was a lot of money, I never regretted it. The pain you are all describing is something I don't recall. They put plastic eye patches over my eyes and those hurt because they don't exactly form to your face well. I had bruises from those actually. The only other pain was when they put that sucking thing on my eyeball and pulled. They were checking both the strength of the eye and the shape, I guess. It hurt badly.
 
Expensive, but it had to be done. You don't buy a $2,100 MacBook Pro and not have it insured.

Keep in mind that LASIK and PRK are 2 different processes. Pain and recovery time differ between the two. PRK doesn't have the flap, LASIK does. Healing time is shorter with LASIK because that flap acts as its own bandage. PRK doesn't have that, it's basically an open wound on the surface of your eye that has to heal on its own over time. LASIK recovery time is typically a month whereas the full recovery time for PRK is 2-5 months (depending on the person).
