    It depends. Now, you get lasik surgery for nearsighted and get perfect vision. But If you still get presbyopia when get old, you need reading glasses to help you see clear. Of course, if your eyes are keep in good condition and won't feel difficult to do near vision work when you get old, you needn't wearing reading glasses. We never know what will happen in the further. Good luck.

    That depends on your own condition. People who are under 40 with no other eye problems are unlikely to need reading glasses after they have lasik surgery for distant vision. While people who are over 40 are likely to need reading glasses several years after they have lasik surgery for distant vision. However, before you have lasik surgery, you should talk to your surgeon about the possibilities of getting reading glasses for presbyopia.
