I had traditional R/AK (Radial/Astigmatic Keratotomy) 19 years ago. My far sight is still 20/20 with some remaining astigmatism. My eyesight was so bad before the surgery that I couldn't see the second line on the Snellen chart. I could barely see which direction the top "E" was pointing.
Today, I still do not yet wear reading glasses, but that is more out of stubbornness than anything else. I really should use them. My arms are getting a bit short these days.
I don't believe Lasik will help short vision. However, my dad recently had cataract surgery done. She had very bad vision before. The new lenses they implanted completely corrected her vision. She does not use glasses at all anymore. No, the pronoun used was not a mistake. You can pick your friends.....well, you know..
