I got LASIK in January of 2001. I have to tell you that it's the best money I've ever spent in my life. It took a whopping 90 seconds to do both eyes. The best part about the procedure was when I rolled over in the middle of the night and could read the clock on the nightstand.:-D
I spend 8-10 hours / day in front of the computer and I've had no problems whatsoever. The first week was a little fuzzy but my eyes healed right up.
All of the mentioned side effects like night blindness and Flanders' disease (eyes falling out) are pretty rare.
The only advice that I'd give you is to make sure that the doctor / clinic you want to go to is at least reputable. See if you can talk to people about their experiences and get their point of view.
