im short sighted aswell & ive been wearing glasses for the past 2 years as ive missed so much but id rather use reading glasses than long distance ones if you know what i mean, ive also got a rugby ball eye or something & i got a quote for a grand an eye, im going to see about it this year anyway, people say ''oh but what if it goes wrong'' but the procedure is getting better & better all the time with very few going wrong,
