there are two types of procedures one is lasik which is the latest technology, its expensive but its relatively painless and also the recovery time is 1-2 days.but not all eyes are suitable for this procedure..if not, u would have to go through another procedure called PRK which is an older procedure ,its cheaper ,while the actualy operation is painless the recovery time is 2-3 days and its pretty painful and it takes abt 15-30 days for 20/20 vision ..its not like u cant see after 3 days ,..u can see much better but the clarity gets better!! i got the PRK done because my eyes were not suitable for lasik ..the first 2 days very pretty bad ,but after that i had no problems..its been almost a yr since i got it done and i have no problems yet!!
<br>The price when i got it done at maxvision was Rs 39,000 for lasik and Rs 25,000 for the PRK.i dont know the latest tag.
<br>Ill be glad to help on any more questions, coz i was pretty apprehensive abt all this when i got it done,so dont hesitate to ask!!
