Wear glasses.
Lots of people get Lasik or other refractive surgery. Most of them are very satisfied. However, with any kind of surgery there are risks involved. Read about them on the FDA web site. Do a Google search using the words Lasik and Lawyer. You will find that there are a number of lawyers making a good living from failed surgeries.
