I had a great experience with Lasik: ten years ago, I went from being very near-sighted to having nearly 20/20 vision with no ill effects. So, this may sound weird, but I don't think anyone who doesn't need eye surgery should have it. “Need” is subjective and I won't go into what I felt I needed the surgery, but I'd say if you think it would be merely less convenient to not have to wear glasses or contacts, don't have the surgery. I think your eyes are too important to mess around with if you don't have to.

Instead of lasik, there is an even better thing out there. They essentially do a corneal lens transplant kind of thing. A very small slit to insert a lens in the eye, a far smaller slit than lasik. That’s what I’m going to have if I ever have something done.
