Been wearing glasses/contacts for most of my life.
I wear contacts 95% of the time and absolutely love the freedom they given me when in the outdoors. Yes, they are a bit of a pain in the ass to put in / take out but you do get used to it and it becomes second nature. It does take a little extra effort to keep your hands clean in the bush when handling them. Hand sanitiser works well but remember to let it dry before touching your eyes - learnt that the hard way a few times... actually a lot of times.
I talked with @Bryan a few times about getting them lasered and almost went down the route. I had initial assessments and everything looked perfect and just had to choose a suitable date. Everything was all arranged but a last minute change in my prescription resulted in my optometrist advising me to wait another year or two before going through with it.
I will get them lasered at some point... it's just a waiting game but for now, contacts suffice.
