Is LASIK surgery worth it?

How does the cost compare with a lifetime of contact lenses?

Nearly five years ago, I considered LASIK eye surgery but I never pulled the trigger. It wasn't that I was afraid or concerned, I was just used to contact lenses, they didn't bother me, and I felt that I didn't need to fix something that wasn't broken.

Fast-forward to this year and my contacts are becoming less and less comfortable. On several occasions my eyes have been really bothered by them to the point I keep them out most of the day when I'm working from home. The only times I put them in are when I play sports and when we go out. It's just more convenient.

The most common concern when it comes to LASIK is the price. It's a several-thousand-dol​lar procedure and, as is the case with anything like that, not something you decide on without some deliberation. Fortunately, a quick analysis shows it's actually not as expensive as you might think.
