What is your current eyesight standard? May be worth looking at the possibilities of FAA or other countries where they just require "corrected vision" with no minimum standard?!
You could easily have a career in aviation outside of EASA/Europe if you strived for it. Look at all these British expats flying in Indonesia and the Middle east, who got themselves an ICAO CPL/IR, and were able to use it there.
Also, and I'm not condoning it, there are rumours of people "working around" the CAA eyesight requirements to get their class one - but that's all I'm saying.
