Agree... I did it about 2.5 years ago and is one of the single best things I have done, next to it is getting married and having the kid.

My vision is only slightly nearsighted, so I'm certainly not a candidate for LASIK (or PRK).

But I did try getting married; definitely one of the worst decisions I ever made in my life.

Luckily there weren't any kids involved.

According to statistics, you're significantly less than 50% likely to have a happy marriage, so it's not a very good gamble.
