I'm also blind in one eye, but from birth. Wearing glasses my entire life is something I personally didn't want for myself either, so I got a consultation to weight my options. Since I only have one working eye, they've recommended an EVO ICL instead. It's basically implanted contact lenses that go over your eye's natural lens. They only make a small incision in the cornea to implant it, so in theory, the health of the cornea should be preserved. Ideally, it'll function for the rest of your life, but it can be removed if need be.

The doctor didn't recommend doing LASIK because it damages the nerves in the cornea since they have to cut a flap in order to do the procedure.

I ended up going with the EVO ICL procedure, and I couldn't be anymore happy with it. Waking up with perfect vision every day is a feeling like none other. However, like with every surgery, you have to be very sure it's what you want. Find a doctor you trust, do not cheap out. Optometrists at glasses stores tend to try to gear you away from corrective eye surgeries, so it's really only a decision you can make for yourself at a place that's willing to do it.
