I'm a flight instructor, so I can answer your questions from personal experience.
I'm assuming that you're simply going for your Private Pilot certificate, correct?
Length of time: Completely dependent on you. If you can set aside the time to fly 3-4 times per week, you could have your certificate done (realistically) in 3-5 months. 3 months being the low end for sharp students.
Approximate cost: If you do your training at a normal flight school at an airport, expect to pay anywhere from $5000-$7000 for your private certificate.
Eyesight: Is your vision correctable to 20/20? If so, you won't have a problem. I have 20/400 vision uncorrected, and never had a problem passing a medical.
If you have any more questions, don't hesitate to ask.

Yes, Private Pilot certificate. That's a little more than I thought. I live in Salt Lake and tomorrow I will make some inquiries. I wear glasses but i don't know what my numbers are. Do you like flying ? Doyou own your own plane or rent to fly?
