Some of the confliction will be raised by the strength (minus figures for left and right eyes) of your prescription. Some will be due to a lack of / more knowledge of the technique depending on the practicioner.
I think it's fair to say that no one who has had lasik, has to date lived beyond 100, so it is impossible to tell the final outcome.
I was under the impression that lasik can be used to treat glaucoma, and that glaucoma is more common if you have a -9 (or higher) myopia prescription (please correct if I am misled). If this is true, it may be worth holding off on the lasik until (God forbid) you really need it.
I am not an expert. :-)
Out of curiosity, what is your prescription?

I think that the question would be entirely lost on most users. Perhaps there needs to be a push to educate on the benefits.

It may well be, and with good reason. However, I still encounter people who think that JavaScript is only used for things like onMouseOver and find it difficult to accept that actually, their favourite app or site is entirely powered by JavaScript.

Is there a simple table of every mainstream purchasable CPU out-there and whether it was affected?
