I think you could well be right on that one I certainly don't know anyone who has had it done. I think I'd be too scared anyway - you only have one set of eyes, imagine if the laser slipped or you had a hopeless surgeon and your sight was badly damaged.
I like my 'wear 'em all the time, day and night' lenses. Easy to put in and out at the monthly changeover and I don't feel like a doddery old lady, reaching for my specs in shops to see the size/price/ingredients of things. Also safer for driving I think.
