QUESTIONS: 1) did it work ? 2) any regrets ? 3) approx cost per eye ? 4) how long before getting back to normal softball play ? 5) did it affect your softball play. i am considering this operation before the end of the year, but it sure sounds scary with results not being 100 % for some patients. any feedback would be greatly appreciated. frank a.

We went with the upgrade. Recovery time is fast, a few weeks. She swears it's well worth it. My turn is probably coming.
Sept. 28, 2010 AZSAGE 6 posts	Just had both eyes done. One was with Toric lens and other standard. Easier than going to the dentist. Results were amazing. Cost $4,700 of which $1,100 was for the optional Toric lens. Return to full activities including softball within a week.

Sept. 29, 2010 AZSAGE 6 posts	The Toric is for correcting your vision. I was 20/200 in that eye and am now 20/20. The other eye did not need that much correction and I am now 20/20 with the standard lens in that one. You can only have this done once so get the Toric if they say it will help you.
