Congrats! I got mine done 12 years ago, best decision ever. I took my mom (I was 23) and told her she could go shopping while I got it done, then at the last minute I got nervous. One of the nurses held my hand during the whole thing, I'll never forget that.
ETA: I should add, I wasn't able to get 20/20 vision as a result...my eyesight was too bad and my corneas were too thin. (They told me that going into it). But my eyesight is significantly better and I still feel it was worth it.
I've been thinking about getting Lasik. You will have to let us know how the consultation goes.
Boo to wearing glasses for a week. I wouldn't like that at all either, especially on a date. Some guys think girls in glasses are really cute though. :-)
Wearing glasses was seriously the worst part of the whole process. My glasses were so thick that I got headaches from the distortion in my peripheral vision. It was still totally worth it- getting Lasik was by far the best money have I have ever spent, and I would do it again in a heartbeat.
