Not a physical item, but LASIK, I got it done a few months ago and oh boy I should have done it a lot sooner.
Otherwise a PS Vita with an SD2Vita, it has given me countless hours of on the go entertainment.

When doing research I felt that LASIK and SMILE weren't drastically different enough for me to choose one over the other as they both had advantages and disadvantages. I did go to a few consultations around the area to get a feel of things. Ultimately, I decided on LASIK because the place I went to, Sharpevision, was recommended to me by some friends who had done the procedure in the past and it was conveniently located, priced and they seemed competent.
I did my procedure on a Friday morning, basically slept all day. On Saturday, I stayed off my phone/computer but I was doing things around the house and I was able to go out without glasses. Sunday, I still kept screentime to a minimum but it was pretty much back to normal. I went back to work on Monday where I stare at a computer all day.
I know this wasn't the best, why I chose one over the other, answer. But I had to wear glasses for about 25 years everyday from when I woke up to when I went to bed. I think regardless of which you choose, I think the procedure is worth it.
