I had LASIK performed one year ago last September.  Life a new!  No

watering eyes from contact lenses on cold winter nights.  No glasses.

The starring effect from very bright lights at night is strong for about

the first few months an fades to a level that I no longer notice.  Again

this only pertains to bright lights at night.  As far as the night

sky...no problem.


Good luck

Bob:
What about the fact that amateur astronomer types operate in the dark a lot, 
and that means dark adapted eyes with pupil diameters as large as possible? 
As I understand it, with all eye corrective procedures, the outside area of 
the lens, and hence the field of view is where problems arise.
