How does your vision change after LASIK surgery?

I am a woman in my 20s considering LASIK surgery. I am curious about how much my vision improves after the surgery, and specifically what changes I might expect. I would like to hear about the reactions of those around me and my own satisfaction levels. What precautions should I take during the recovery process? I would also appreciate information on post-procedure care, necessary details, and recommendations for trustworthy hospitals.
