eh there will always be bad stories about any surgery... shit happens; but i talked to many people before and they all loved it so i said fuck it... my left eye had an allergy to contacts called GPC so i couldnt wear my contacts more then 5hours, then i'd have to throw them away, with out them drying up and annoying the shit out of my eye... i hate glasses so i said fuck it im getting lasik... there are a ton more good stories then bad, i say if mike wants to get it done pay the extra 1500 or so and go to updegraff, i've never heard a bad story come from them.... ya i paid 2600 for each eye but it's well worth it.
