I have also thought about it but there are things that don't quite convince me. I would love to wake up in the morning and actually see what's around me without having to grope about until I find my glasses. But I had a chat about this with my optician and he's always said that the technology is so new that there's hardly any people who have enjoyed it for a long, long time, so the post operaration in the long run is still quite uncertain. Also he told me that most people tend to need glasses for reading afterwards. Apparently they still don't know exactly why or how to solve it. And then again there's the fear that something might go wrong. They say it's an easy operation but you can never be 100% sure. Plus, it's still too expensive and perhaps in the future prices should go down.
