It's honestly the closest thing to a miracle I've ever experienced. I have NO problems with night vision (well, no worse than prior to the surgery.)
The procedure is a bit unnerving but if I had to do it all over again, I would in a second.

My first miracle was in Grade 10 when the very first high index plastic Contact lenses became available for a low low price of ~450 a lens. This brought my vision from 160/20 to 50/20. good enough for a drivers liscence !!!!!
My post is alarmist. Do your research about the surgeon/team/facility before you go in for correction. And realize that if something bad happens the contract you sign generally is there to protect the facility and not you.
