I had both eyes done 1 1/2 years ago. They also corrected astigmatism in both eyes. It took about month for both eyes to heal up and now have 20/13 vision. I also felt like there was something in my eyes for about 4 months after surgery. They used a laser procedure for cutting cornea and for destroying cataract. The laser procedure is not covered by insurance so there was a hefty chunk of change out of pocket. Best money i ever spent!
