Contact lenses/glasses are just a stopgap for a year or two to confirm my prescription is stable (hadn't had my eyes tested for quite some time prior to learning I needed correction) before getting laser correction. Probably LASIK but considering PRK even with the longer recovery time due to lower incidents of low-light artefacts, though I need to look for more recent literature to see if that is now a solved issue. My issue is mainly astigmatism, so very little chance of it improving over time.
Astigmatism is a bi**h, have that with some Nystagmus, Strabismus, Oversight, Light Sensitivity and yeah..
Although I've had surgery for my Nystagmus and only suffer from mild Strabismus from surgery for that which has helped me a lot, taking me all so much further away from legally blind.
But dammit, the astigmatism probably has the most annoying side effect when focusing on light sources...
