I’m sure the science has progressed since I had lasik for distance vision in 2001, but for what it’s worth I’ve never regretted it and believe the savings I subsequently made in contacts and specs more than outweighed the cost.
15-20 years later my prescription regressed and I’m back to -1.0 but at this age I’m not considering having surgery again.
Only downside for me is a mild increase in photo sensitivity - especially with oncoming headlights.
Hope it goes well for you.
