I’d advise any aircrew considering eye surgery to thoroughly research the regulatory restrictions before committing to it because you only get one chance at this. Only single focus (inner eye) replacement lenses are allowed for pilots in UK.

This means in my case I have lenses giving me good distance vision but have to use reading glasses for the near stuff. I use frameless ones on the end of my nose and look over them for outside, so I could fly with NVG if necessary, as Crab does.
