There's nothing bad about LASIK!  First, you need to be evaluated by an ophthalmologist to be sure you are a good candidate.  If so, it is a very safe procedure and within 4 hours or less, you should be able to watch TV without glasses; most people can drive the next day, as well.  You will need to use medical drops for a few days and artificial tears for several months, until your eyes fully heal up.
It can cause abberarions and halos around car headlights and street lights at night . Dry eyes is also a side effect.
