If you live in the USA go to www.aao.org and look for a refractive surgeon near you. Go in to see if you are a candidate for lasik.

KNOW THAT AT YOUR AGE YOU WILL NEED READING GLASSES OR MONOVISION TO FUNCTION WITHOUT GLASSES. MOST LASIK PATIENTS NEED GLASSES AFTER THEIR MID 40S FOR NEAR AND MID VISION
