it’s now exactly 24 hour since my LASIK / laser procedure. It’s amazing that right now I have better vision than I ever had with my contacts in, and I’m in no discomfort. I’ve not had to take any pain killers. The only discomfort I experienced was similar to having put my contact lenses in the wrong way round (something I’m glad I’ll never have to experience again). I slept well and woke up with little-no discomfort.
