you could use the mem card exploit but, you would still need to be able to read a disc to do that. The only other option to load directly from mem card would be to use dms4 but, if you can't afford a new laser I'm sure you won't be able to afford that so I guess you're out of luck.
Buy a new laser. Or buy a modchip that has a built in HD loader. If you can't afford it, that's too bad.
if worst comes to worst, you could tinkle with the lens and see if you can ressurrect it. my friend gave me his old busted ps2 that didnt read discs and i fixed it by adjusting the voltage on the ps2. search online on how to do that
