RE: Lasik Operations.
Basically, they cut a slice of your cornea, burn a precise area and then "glue" the cornea back. They won't sew anything.
After the surgery, you'll have to be careful, don't touch the eye, keep it clean, etc. After a few days it'll be OK.

If it's done correctly, and you have no complications, you'll have a perfect sight for long years.

However, your eye MUST be very stable. If your degree has changed recently (1 year or less), you're not recommended to do it, as it can change again, making the surgery useless. In average, you should wait until 23, 25 years to be sure your eyes are stable and won't change any more.

One of the major side-effects is that your eye might be very sensitive to light. So you might need sun glasses almost every time you go outside, or driving, etc. It's "mandatory" right after the procedure, but some people still need them after a long time, some just get used to them...
