Laser eye surgery limits in UK?


I am long sighted with a prescription of, left sph +4.25 cyl +0.75 right sph + 3.50 cyl +0.25. I went to optical express a couple of years ago and was told they couldn t do anything for me either laser wise or lens implant. My left eye prescription was beyond the laser thresholds and I couldn t get a lens implant because my cornea was to thin, I needed a space of 2mm and I only had a gap of 1.8mm.
I now want to know if the thresholds have increased allowing me to have laser surgery or not? Or is there another option other than contacts or glasses that I haven t thought of?
