I have 1.5 sph and 0.25 cyl power in my right eye and 0.75 sph with 0.25 cyl in my left eye. I'm thinking about refractive surgery but not sure if my prescription makes me a good candidate. Also, between bladeless LASIK and SMILE, which one would be better for my case?

My grandma is 60 and has been blind for about a year now. The doctors back home say her eyes are completely damaged naturally, but she wants to explore an eye transplant to regain her vision. Can you suggest the best hospitals in India or Bangalore for this procedure? Also, what would the approximate cost be so we can plan accordingly before bringing her to Bangalore?

Question

I had PRK surgery 6 months ago and have been using Veldrop gel for the last 5 months. My doctor recently prescribed it for another 3 months, but I've been getting eye fatigue and headaches for the past 2 days after applying the drops. Is this normal or should I be concerned?
