I couldn't live with glasses.  Trying to work on machinery with bifocals is a joke.  Then too they are always dirty or fogged up.  I had lasik surgery back in 2003 and ignoring the savings for eye glasses alone it was worth every penny.

The only caveat I would offer is to investigate the surgeon fully and check multiple sources for any problems.  Note everybody is eligible for surgery and you don't want it done at the mall.
