I had it done about 7 years ago. I was very short sighted and also had astigmatism. To give you an idea, if I squinted I could read the big A on an eyesight chart.

For me it took about 6 months for my vision to come good, my eyes were overcorrected due the way the eye heals (this was explained to me). Since then good vision, and only now looking at getting my eyes rechecked.

Down side, for about a year I had problems with dry eyes at night, the cornea would stick to the inside of my eye lid, then the top layer was ripped off when I woke in the morning, but some lacralube helped here. No issues now.(for last 5 years only once or twice a year, in winter with the aircon on at night)

Don't watch the video of the op.
