[M.T. Pockets]

Good for you Petey. I had it done 5 years ago this week - absolutely no regrets.

I enjoy shooting without corrective glasses or contacts. I do keep some artificial tears around and use them when needed, a small price to pay. I noticed that I do see better if I'm away from a computer screen for a day or two, and also if I drink more water. If I'm dehydrated I don't see as well. The eye Dr. said this is normal.

As for shooting & recoil, I asked my surgeon (he's a big hunter himself) and he said after two weeks to go ahead. I waited three, and I started shooting my .300 win. off the bench.

If anyone is even thinking of having Lasik done, let me help you decide. Do it now. It is proven to be safe and effective and the price seems to have bottomed out.
