Awesome. Do you have any problems at night?
Actually, no. I've had a pretty good history of being able to see very well in the dark for my entire life, but that's probably just because I'm a) a darkness loving geek who would read and play games in the dark and b) The Philippines used to have major power outage problems in the late 80s to early 90s.
That aside, I had to wear these thick goggles to keep dust or any other foreign particles from entering my eyes for a handful of weeks, but that's typical procedure at this point in LASIK, as you're not supposed to scratch your eyes or get stuff in them while they heal.
Sometimes, I feel like supermarket lights are a little glaring and hard to put up with, but I think that's just the way I roll with lightness and darkness, and has little to do with the after effects o the LASIK itself.
Your wife is also correct. The doctor told me a lot about the changes in technology, so I think your experience will depend on which particular machine they are using to surgerify it into awesometitude.

I think I can muster up the willpower to have my eyelids clamped open but it will be hard.
Yeah, that was my big anxiety prior to the whole ordeal. I was all like, "What if a loud sound happens and like I turn and the whole thing's ruined?" but it turned out okay and i didn't suddenly jerk my pupils and ruin the whole thing.
