As I was short sighted they just did one eye so I have "bifocal" vision - one eye for close up and one for far away and it works perfectly. Now I don't have to carry round 3 pairs of glasses (reading, distance, sun). Another bonus - we love touring and I'm usually the navigator, and it used to be quite difficult looking at road signs and a map, whipping glasses on and off and trying to refocus. Now - no problem.

I went for laser evaluation a couple of years ago and was given a strong thumbs up as a good candidate for the procedure (and yes, of couse I realize the doctors wants to do as many as these as possible but it seemed like they checked out a lot of things before encouraging one to schedule). However, since I'm pretty nearsited but also have "middle-age eye" which makes reading small print a challange, I can always pop off my glasses and put the map or whatever close up and read anything, and I would lose that option if I had the laser correction done. Then I'd be forced to rely on reading classes. I decided not to make the tradeoff. Love the last sentence.
