I've had what is known as "Wavefront PRK" here in Ottawa, Canada, at the focus eye centre. It was the best thing I've ever done, even though it's only been 7 months now, but i do have 20/15 vision.
I chose PRK over LASIK, because in some cases, the flap never REALLY heals, and if you get a blow to your eye, theres a good chance it'll fly off. PRK, and the wavefront version, have the longest healing time, i was in bed with closed eyes for 4 days, with a checkup every single day. The demerol was nice, but it was a pretty gruelling 4 days. On the eve of the last day, it was as bad as it was mid first day, and i thought it would never get better.... and then magically, every hour of the 5th day it got better and better until that night i sat down and had dinner with my folks. I could see, o how i could see.
No halos, minor dryness, minor light sensitivity, all totally worth it. It was 4700$ too, very pricey, but totally worth it.
Neat stuff, but i don't see a reference to 'breething' anywhere in there... is that a fast one you're trying to pull, or do you have some evidence of abyss-like breathable liquid somewhere?
