There’s LASIK. It’s been around since 1989. The downside is that the procedure only lasts about 15 years from what I’ve seen – people who got it have to start wearing glasses again after that time.
My aunt got it like 20 years ago yeah and now she needs “readers” but they’re like +8 and the text on her phone is probably size 72 font. Its kind of scary.
I love her but she’s kind of dumb. I don’t think she realizes its not just from getting old but from the surgery itself.

Lasik didn’t get FDA approval until 1996.
Before that, it was radial keratotomy.
I got mine in 1986 and it was effective until 2015 when I started to need bifocals.
I consider it a success.
That’s interesting, yours lasted way longer than the people I’ve talked to. I wonder if the procedure was any different.
