I just remember helping him with the eye drops, ya have to use them for a while afterwards but thats a small price to pay for good vision i suppose! Im lucky enough to have good vision and not have to worry about it but i know a fair few people who do have and have had problems! IMO Laser surgery is the way to go!
Yeah there is always the odd bad story but the majoirty are all good.

If it was done quite a while ago i saw a programme were they cut that flap with a mechanical thing but IIRC i read or was told in there that they now cut the flap with the laser too so its much more accurate which is good
