I went to a place in Montreal (I live in Boston). It was great. Best thing I have ever done for myself. All total I spent about $1600 for both eyes.
The procedure itself was like going to the dentist. I was really nervous. They put drops in my eyes to numb them. I was looking at a red dot. They did some things to my eyes, but it was really close and blurry (they cut me but I couldnt see it or feel it). Then the red dot started to flash and I could smell the smell of hair burning. Five minutes later, the doc does something to my eyes that I cant see or feel. I walk out. They give me dark sunglasses and eye drops. I go to the hotel and sleep. My eyes felt irritated but they didn't hurt.
Pretty easy. There was one girl there who after the surgery her eye flap folded over wrong and so she had to go back in. That looked uncomfortable.
The next day, I split the drive home. Felt fine. I now have 20/20 vision. The only thing I would recommend would be to bring a valium with you to take after the surgery. You are kind of wound up and anxious but you cant see that well and there's nothing really to do.
