I am having far eye farsightedness with both the eyes having -3.5 from almost more than two years. Can you suggest me a way to get rid of get rid of specs I am wearing? Should I go for lasik or contacts? From either of them which is long lasting and safe for the person? Do I need to consult a ophthalmologist in person to consult this? Please suggest.

Hello dear. To get rid of glasses you have 2 options. Contact lens and other is lasik surgery. Both are equally safe if done properly. Contact lens is temporary but lasik is permanent way to get rid of glasses. Both are long lasting and both are safe. My opinion is if you want permanent removal of glasses then choose lasik as it is hassle free and permanent.
