Funny you should mention the laser corrective surgery. Only recently have I
actually even considered this alternative. I must admit I'm not sure I want
to throw the dice on possibly forfeiting my eyesight at 49. However, it's
very frustrating when I need to see closeup. For example, working inside
the computer or under the dash of the car, etc. I find it amusing that your
friend did it one eye at a time! Ha! Ha! I guess that's one approach.
BTW: What was the total cost of the surgery?

Well, a friend of mine celebrated his fortieth birthday by having laser
surgery on both eyes (one at a time, just in case the first one doesn't
"take" for some reason, at least they haven't buggered up both eyes). He
now has 20/20 in both eyes, and loves it.
While I can afford it, I *can't* bear the thought of someone slicing open my
eye(s) with a laser... I'll stick to my (relatively lightweight and
unobtrusive) glasses.
