Researchers are developing a futuristic alternative to LASIK that reshapes the eye without lasers or incisions. Using mild electrical pulses and platinum contact lenses, they temporarily soften the cornea so it can be molded into a new shape. Early tests on rabbit eyes successfully corrected nearsightedness in about a minute while preserving the eye’s structure.
I have absolutely no issue with simply wearing glasses. I know that some people’s vision is probably beyond that point but for the majority, lasering your eyes is too extreme.
