I had it in October. I had a complication in my left eye. No problem in my right eye. The vision in my right eye is 20/15. The problem in my left eye was that I developed an inflamation. I couldn't tell but the doctor saw it after a couple of days. He increased the steroid drops but the problem got worse. A week later they had to reopen the flap and treat the lasered section with heavy steroids. I had pain in that eye for a couple of days but eventually the problem went away. My vision in that eyes was worse than the right eye. The doctor said it was over corrected. It got a little better. He is waiting for it to stabilize. It's about 20/30 now which isn't too bad. If it doesn't get better, I have the option of having it corrected with the laser again.

This is not a horror story. Even with the trouble, I am still glad I had it done. Even if my vision stays the way it is now, I would be happy.
