Lasik is a shaving of the eyeball, though, and is only a solution to an immediate problem. Look into the permanent contact. It's removable (with surgery, I believe) but leaves the eye tissue intact, whereas lasik as a 30-40 year lifespan. For that reason, I think we'll see less lasik, and more of a permanent contact solution. People will always wear glasses for the style that they provide. They'll at least wear the frames.

Another problem with permanent lenses is that unlike natural ones, your body can't change the curvature so you would need a separate pair of glasses for near-sighted things like reading.
