I really fucking hate my garbage eyesight sometimes. And I've thought about laser surgery problem is they can't guarantee glasses free from that point onwards and you could well be wearing them again in a few years (and I've known a couple of people where his has happened to).
but if you need glasses would you need a lower prescription than now ?
I mean yes but 8000 dollars is a lot of money for the possibility of wearing less strong glasses.
and it's not risk free either.
Not completely no although it is very low risk as I understand it.
Maybe a few years of no glasses would be a nice relief, so in that regard it might be worth it.
Right now. 100% need glasses.
Laser surgery. A very good chance you won't need them.
and if you won't get worse with surgery then that's good.
