I did LASIK surgery when I was in my 20's. After almost a decade, my vision is pretty much perfect. Recently, Ive been prescribed with glasses only for when I work with computers because Im getting visually tired quicker.

I think it was a good decision in my case, mainly because in my 20's I used to be into decently active activities (5ks runs, long distance biking, etc), so I didn't have to choose between seeing correctly or enjoying what I was doing to the fullest.

Contact lenses are a thing.
Not everyone can use them. I have sinus allergies and astigmatism. The combination makes it hard to fit me with lenses that actually correct my vision well enough to be useful and makes those lenses very uncomfortable almost immediately.
Google the complications of contact lenses...
