Stories? I am surprised because in a third world country like India, people are undergoing lasic surgery. Even one of my institute student underwent lasic surgery just a week ago. He was wearing thick eyeglasses of power +8 dioptre. Now he is able to see precisely without any eyeglasses. The only trouble in lasic surgery is that you can not allow the eye to come in contact with water by any chance for 6 months after the surgery and this is awful because you can not pour water on your head while bathing or you can not pour water on your eyes for flushing if some dust particle enters. In one way, you can say that you have to keep glasses of 0 dioptre for 6 months even after surgery. And photgraphy? No way. Forget it for 6 months. For a serious photographer, this is a blow to the chest. However, you can suffer that blow if you have patience for 6 months. So, the best option that I think can relieve a bespectacled photographer who is not interested to change the dioptre of camera eyepiece, is to wear contact lens.
