That is another option which apparently is a permanent fix ie your eyes never deteriorate and it stops the need for reading glasses.
About £3K per eye.
And no cataracts when you get old
My mother got something like that done.
I am here. Where are you?

Well I finally had the procedure done last month.WOW!
It took about a week for me to get totally crystal clear vision but WOW.It's incredible 8)
Being able to see better than I ever have is just amazing.Well worth it.It's now just under a month and I'd say my eyes are more or less back to normal.
I now have to use cheap Poundland reading glasses for small print but for everything else I'm good.I'm currently using Aldi cycling glasses until I get round to having standard transitions put into my Optilabs frames.
Almost £7k is a lot of money but for something as important as my eyes it's a no-brainer and worth every penny!

+1 I'm glad you got the result you wanted. My eyes are sadly beyond the help of surgery now, but like everything else you learn to adapt.
