Vision Requirements

Hello, I live in southern ontario, canada and am starting aviation college in 8 months and have some concerns over my vision to pass the transport canada medical. Also, I worry about diminishing vision to pass the yearly test plus the airline requirements. I wear contact lenses, corrected to about 20/15, and my prescription is -2.75 in my right eye, -2.00 with mild astigmatism in my left. I am a candidate for laser eye correction, and have read that it is now 3 months between successful surgery and having a medical reinstated. Would it make most sense to get the laser correction immediately?
