Anyone here have it done? I'm having LASEK done on the 17th (which is a hybrid of LASIK and PRK). They basically cut a VERY thin flap in the top layer of the cornea and zap your eye to reshape it until the refraction defections in your eye is corrected. The flap falls off after your eye heals.

Wondering what the reviews are like.

Paul Phillips wrote a pretty good "trip report" about this procedure on his blog a while ago. linky (http://www.livejournal.com/~extempore)

I had LASIK done last year, and it was the best decision I've ever made. Right now my vision is 20/15, before surgury it was 20/200. Totally worth it.
