The first would be to go to the range everyday for a month until I can hit the target accurately at 6-7 yards without using the sights. I have no difficulty focusing on the target itself. The second solution would be to install a laser sight, go to the range once, and leave the gun in the nightstand. Any advice on this?

Even if you practice, in the middle of the night with adrenaline coursing through your system and no glasses on, you still might not be able to hit your point of aim accurately. It sounds to me like you might benefit from a laser sight...but I'd still go to the range more than once, and make sure you can hit what you aim at consistently with the laser.
Another option to consider is corrective surgery so that you can see without glasses.
