Laser eye surgery

Hello,
Has anyone had laser eye surgery to correct their vision? If so, how much was it and was it ok?
I am 51 and have worn glasses/contact lenses since I was 20 but my eyes have deteriorated again and I’m not struggling to see close up stuff (with glasses) but everything is blurry if I don’t wear anything. I have to wear reading glasses on top of my contacts when working on the PC now. It has cost me a fortune over the years. I’m wondering about laser eye surgery!! Would it fix this?

I had LASIK in 2015 at Moorfields (David Gartry). One of the best things I ever did. More expensive than other places BUT the surgeons are world-class.

I was -6.75 in one eye and -6 in the other so much more short-sighted than you, OP. My vision became 20/20. You should get an excellent result.
