I had the same laser surgery for Glaucoma, its to relieve pressure only, nothing to do with vision at all.
Bob, get the contacts, they are all disposable now, unless you have special needs(like the ones for cataracts so they dont spin). You cant beat the freedom it gives you. No more foggy glasses at night, no more possible lost/damaged glasses climbing on rocks ,jettys etc. Its great. When you lose them, who cares ,they are disposable anyway. I even used to wear them jetskiing, only lost 2 in all the years. Waterskiiing you will lose them regulartly, but i would even use them for that, cause you can see everything,and safety is more important than a disposable lens.
One more thing,
Start slowly, build up your tolerance, like a new pair of shoes. Dont let them tell you that you can wear them for 4 hours right off the bat, start with like an hour, go to 2, 3, 4 etc, til you are comfortable wearing them all day, and never leave them in overnight, no matter what anyone tells you, thats real bad.
