Personally, I got lenses implanted (I had an RLE). The thought of lasik always scared me. They can remove phakic lenses, and exchange IOL's, but once part of your cornea is removed, it's gone for good. Not to mention cutting the nerves for your tears and risking they don't grow back. Just a thought for you to think about..... :). PS, I was a glasses hater also, except for my fashion sunglass collection I now have!
Aw I hate glasses! I wear them a lot, but I rely on lenses for sports, and to look presentable; and so that I can wear sunglasses... wouldn't be keen on prescription sunglasses because you can't just leave them on all the time! I would definitely stick to lenses if I knew it would be low risk - daily lenses seem very low risk from what I'm hearing.
Or you could wear glasses? They would be cute on you!
I can no longer wear my contact lenses either because I got a corneal ulcer. So I am wearing glasses until I have saved up enough to have the Lasik surgery.
