Good heads up for anyone considering lasik. I thought about doing it myself a few years ago, but decided not to based on the research I did and that fact that one of my sim instructors was a permamently grounded 121 CA thanks to lasik. There are many satisfied customers who will vouch for vision surgery, but there are also real risks...which have even more significance for pilots.
