Yes, it was before the first Orlando show, so that would make it 8 years.

As for Kathy Griffin, that was a really rare case, and she had had multiple operations in a short period of time. The risks really are minimal, but like anything in life, you have to weigh those risks, and decide for yourself.

I took the chance when Lasik was in it's early stages, and now I have to decide whether or not to do it again. I probably will, mainly because of the freedom it gives me while sailing.

Other than swimming and diving, I really noticed the pleasure of no glasses when I was sailing in a tropical depression in the Windwards, off the coast of St. Vincent back in 2000. We were beating into 40 knot winds, with 20 foot swells, and all I could think of was "I can see!". Before that, I had to deal with sea spray all over my glasses.
