50 YO here. I started wearing prescription glasses a few years ago. And readers a few years before that. Now, normally, I wear progressive lenses (far, middle + close) that enable me to read, drive, watch TV, etc without switching glasses. But for extended computer work I still fall back to plain readers. Also, back before I started wearing the prescription progressive lenses, I had to use reading glasses to read my phone -- that was a pain. The progressive lenses are great just for this reason. I don't think established Lasik tech will alleviate my need for reading glasses, so there doesn't seem to be much point now to go forward with surgery. There are new procedures that purport to correct nearsighted/reading problems. But they are new (to me at least) so I want to wait and see how they perform over the long run. On the other-hand, I experience some issues, such as diminished night vision, halos, and other stuff, that are related to wearing glasses today (mostly caused by reflection, smudges, and glare I guess). So, the common issues caused by surgery would probably be acceptable to me if I could figure out a way to stop needing reading glasses.
