     The procedure is called 'radial kirlatometry' (I don't think that
is spelled right).  It is still an experimental procedure in the
United States.  There is not too much data on how permanent the effects
are, due to the fact the procedure is relatively new.  If I were you,
I would keep on wearing your glasses or contacts until this becomes
a 'routine' procedure.
