Cost and effectiveness of laser eye surgery?

What is the average cost of corrective laser eye surgery to correct nearsightedness? I heard that it doesn't completely correct your vision if your eyes are bad, how effective is it and how long do the effects last?

I don't know how much the cost of it is now, but when I got it I paid $2500. That was 4 years ago. It still works great. It is a wonderful investment because you would spend that much on contacts/glasses, eye appointments and misc. I don't regret it even though I have problems driving at night and have to wear sunglasses during the day. But I already have some problems with my eyes before the surgery. Search around in your local area. Make sure that you go to someone that offers lifetime warranty and make sure that the cost covers all of your expenses, including medication, post op appointments, and pre op appointments. I used TLC Laser Center. I've never been happier. Oh, and by the way--I have 20/10 vision in both eyes.
