But the idea of a laser on my eyes scares me more than that hypothetical scenario, I think.
I have a friend who had laser surgery a few years ago. She said it wasn't the lasers that scared her, it was the needle that they had to stick in her eye first. Watching it approach slowly would be more than a little unnerving.
but I had laser surgery and there was no needle involved in mine.
A non-needle option would be preferable. Was there any cutting involved?
Yes there was. They numbed my eyes with drops and then used a machine to cut a flap in the outer layer (retina?) of my eye. It didn't hurt, but there was a feeling of a lot of pressure on my eye.
So I'm getting my eyes checked today to see if eye can get laser surgery

I've read it destroys your night vision. Do you need to drive at night? *NM*

It can impact it (create halos), but not necessarily destroy it...

I'm just going to skip current technology solutions and wait for Geordi LaForge visors.
