I got LASIK four years ago. No haloing, and in general I'm really happy about it. I did have vicious dry eyes for about six months, which was much worse than it sounds, but it went away. Overall, I'm thrilled with the procedure, and as I previously had terrible vision, it was legitimately life-changing.
I had LASIK in 2010 and never experienced any halo'ing either. Same with the dry eyes though. Got better. I'm in the UK and had it done with Ultralase at a cost of about $6,500. That was the most expensive surgery option though (why risk being cheap when your health is on the line, even if the chance of a bad result is marginal?)
I advise anyone considering it to go to more than one surgery for a consultation. I first went to one in London which didn't inspire confidence, treated me like I'd come in to buy a car, felt pressured and marketed toward. Ultralase treated me like a medical patient. So shop around wherever you are in the world.
My prescription was approximately -8 in both eyes. I was a pretty fringe-y candidate for the surgery and had to do the most expensive one (laser flap, wavefront) to get it done.
