Charlie I trust all will go well.
It's amazing what they can do with eyes and lasers today. I wore glasses from kindergarten until I was in my early 20's. I had to get a stronger prescription every months or so for years. I had those ultra thin lenses and they were still way thick. When I was 23 or so I had LASIK and RK both in both of my eyes.
I went from 20/400 to 20/20 -2 (almost 20/20). I went from having to grope along without my glasses to not needing them at all.
So while the idea of lasers and eyes my seem horrifying. The results can be a real miracle from God. I still can't read the story in the bible about the man who was born blind without tearing up after all these years.

Charlie, check with the VA, you could get glasses with little or no cost. That's where I got my eye done. ftd
