About ten years ago, I worked as a Patient Educator for a group of Ophthalmic Surgeons, and they did a lot of LASIK. They also did cataract surgeries, and they were starting to get into IOC (interocular lenses).
LASIK is a very safe procedure, but remember, it's surgery - so follow your post-op instructions and ask lots of questions. I got, as a benefit of that job, a free LASIK - but I have 20/20, so I gave it to my boyfriend (who is now my husband).
He did well - he works in television - he produces now, but at the time he was a videographer/editor, so it was a little scary for us both - and he had a few weeks where his night vision wasn't perfect, but within three weeks, he was completely happy with the results.
He had acute astigmatism, so he does still wear glasses for work, to make sure everything is crisp and in focus. But where he could not function without them before, today they're optional - a mild prescription.
Of course, we're both about to hit 40, so we'll be seeking out cheaters pretty soon!
Good luck!
