Depending on your age and your prescription, you may consider a procedure called refractive lens exchange. coheneyeinstitute.com/lasik/refractive-lens-exchange-rle/
@doctorilancohen my current eye doc says I shouldn't and that I'd still need readers. Just wanted to know should I seek a second opinion and do you have any recommendations as I live in Dallas area
Hi, I am 53, I need to use reading glasses since four years ago. Perfect far-sight. Is there any option to correct my near vision problem to not to use reading glasses?
If you can see distance perfectly at this point, I would not recommend any type of surgery. stay tuned, however, there are other newer technologies that are emerging for your specific case.

It can cure both far and near vision at the same time
I'm 52 with an astigmatism. I use 1 contact in left eye n nothing in other. No cataracts. Would I be a good candidate n how long will it last
It could be, depending on other factors in the eyes. The distance will stay stable until you develop cataracts.

I have cataracts and bifocals and tourettes
Consider cataract surgery.
