It is hard to get past the marketing hype surrounding LASIK. If your prescription is changing as you get older, you will soon be back in glasses. Many people need reading glasses after using LASIK to correct for distance vision. At best, a temporary fix that is much better suited for younger people whose eyes will remain stable for a while.
I tried the multifocal contacts. I never got it right after six months and went back to glasses full time. Others try and love monovision with either a contact or LASIK in one eye.
