I have astigmatism and a history of cataracts in my family. I'll wait until I'm ancient and my eyeballs quit reshaping themselves and maybe hold out for some cybernetic eyes.
An active friend's girlfriend (camping, hiking, foreign travel, bungee jumping etc) that got LASIK (in the past year) and it was worth it to her due to no need to carry around accouterments of contact lens wear/glasses while traveling. Her recovery was rough because of the dry eye afterwards but she also refused to take any pain meds and, in general, is a PITA.
My other buddy got LASIK (I wanna say late 90's) surgery went well but then he wasn't able to go into the Airforce to be a pilot and was pretty crushed.
Just weigh in why you really want it and research whether you'd do laser or razor.
