If you can afford it, definately take a look into it. I know my life will be changing for the better!

Went to this place, which has locations up and down the west coast.

I was 20/400 (legally blind) and had it done 7 years ago or so in Canada, before it was legal in the US. No pain during the procedure; it freaked out my gf watching it on a videoscreen, though. When they slice the cornea open, it just gets blurry, but it doesn't hurt. Nothing short of miraculous. In pain for 2 days after or so, then fine. Congrats, now go throw away your contacts & glasses.
