its actually not a bad idea....if done right you could save quite a bit....

my uncle did this a couple of years ago....his ticket & lasik cost came to a total of just over $2k....

a client of mine got this done as well while he was here for work last year....i think the lasik cost him around $600 & he had to stay back an extra 3-4 days after the procedure....
