It's better to try contact lenses if your prime aim to get rid of glasses.

There's a battery of tests that you need to undergo before Lasik. If you're fit only then can you think about this surgery.
Cost depends on the type of Lasik. Those things come later, first is to see whether you can undergo Lasik or not.
