I would love to have Lasek, but have been told repeatedly that my eyes are "too tricky" to be undertaken (at this point I would be worried if somebody claimed they would be a piece of cake). My Mom has the same complex of issues I have, and she recently had her cataracts fixed with corrective lenses (embedded in her eyes) and could see her toes without help for the first time in her life. She's 78. She has always held out hope the technology would eventually fix my eyes. We're watching stem cell research.
