My AME looked it up in sweden, it's not against regulations to do it but the method has to be approved by the aviation authorities and one year after the procedure you have to get evaluated by an aviation approved eye examiner. If you get the green light you retain your medical, otherwise no more flying. This also means as I understand it that from the time you have lasic to the examination one year later you're not allowed to fly which basically means you'd have to quit your job while waiting.

I'd say stick with glasses.
