I have terrible vision and have been short-sighted since first grade. I wear daily contact lenses now and this is fine for me. For those experiencing dryness with contacts, be sure your ducts aren't clogged - I had this problem for a while and a warm wet washcloth held gently to the eyes for 20-30 seconds a day helps unclog them. LASIK and PRK make me nervous as I do a contact sport (BJJ). I really don't like the thought of a weakened eyeball under these circumstances: my doctor pointed out years ago (when I first considered this) that I have a "healthy but deformed" eyeball. Given the fact that occasionally someone might wind up squishing down on my head with a great deal of force, the thought of having a bit of scar tissue there is not comforting. As it stands I lose a contact lens on the mats every couple of months (yay, disposables).
