How much did it cost?
I had mine done in the summer of 2000, and I was on the verge of legally blind. It cost $2,800 per eye. The price has gone down considerably.
What was the exact procedure you went through?
I went in and they gave me a valium, let me sit for half an hour, then took me into the operating room. As the orderly helped me lay down, he said “Do you see that clock on the wall?” I replied “I see something round on the wall, is it a clock?”
Then, they taped a bunch of gauze pads to my temples to catch the runoff from the numbing drops they started to put in my eyes. Then there was the eye-opener-holdey thing, a computer talking, some darkness, and ten minutes later, they sat me up and said “Can you see the clock?” And I said “Hey! It’s five o’clock!” They put some old-lady-cataract sunglasses on me and walked me out of the room towards the waiting area, and I pointed sixty feet down the hall and said “And that guy’s my dad!” It was miraculous.
I had to sit there with my eyes closed for half an hour, and it wasn’t advised that I drive that day. I had clear contacts in as a bandage, and returned the next morning (driving myself) to get them removed. I had already been marveling at the change in my vision, and I actually hugged the guy who took the contacts out, because that made it a million times better. I wasn’t allowed to wear makeup, rub, or get my eyes wet for two weeks.
How is your night sight?
In the years since, my asthigmatism has started to grow back, as I was forewarned it might, because I was just at the outside edge of what was fixable when I did it. I’ve gotten glasses for night driving just because of that, but for five years, my night vision was fine. I’ve never had great night vision, but I learned that the halos around other people’s headlights were because my windshield was dirty, not my contacts. 
How long do you have to wait until you can drive?
I drove the next morning.
When will you know what your corrected vision is?
I never asked, but I’m pretty sure they said I was down to about 20/40 the next day.
