I want to get my short-sightedness corrected with Laser Eye surgery because there are some really good deals available near where I live.

I haven't yet gone for the appointment but just wondering, has anyone with MS got it done? I have a history of Optic Neuritis (especially in the early MS years, less so now), but wondering would that make the Laser people avoid taking me on as too risky, or does it cause any problems?
My optician says she can see no damage to my optic nerve though I know that is not touched with the laser eye surgery.

Love to hear opinions, good & bad.
Thanks
