I wore contacts for 26 years (and glasses for 29) and just this summer I got lasik surgery. It wasn't too expensive (under $3K) and it is AH-MAY-ZING!!! I ride all the time and never get dry eyes anymore, and sweat in my eyes is not nearly as bothersome as it used to be. They can do mono-vision with the lasik or can just correct the vision to perfect in each eye.
Contacts were easy and I hated my glasses (only wore the glasses to bed each night). The three weeks I had to wear my glasses before the surgery was difficult because I hate being without peripheral vision.
If you can afford Lasik- I would HIGHLY recommend it!!! I can't believe I waited so long to do it. It's been amazing beyond anything I could have thought.
If you plan to stick with contacts or glasses- I'd still do contacts over glasses. So much easier.
