I live in a city where no doctors offer Contoura vision surgery, so I'd have to fly elsewhere to get it done. But I'm not sure if I'm even a good candidate for it I don't want to travel all that way just to find out I can't get the procedure. Here are my details: RE sph -1.75 cyl -1.60 axis 15 VA 20/20 LE sph -1.50 cyl -1.25 axis 7 VA 20/20 IPD 69 My eye pressure is healthy, I have very mild dry eyes (not severe), and I've been diagnosed with astigmatism and myopia. Could I possibly be a candidate for Contoura vision?

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 grandmother had cataract surgery about 2 months ago and I'm wondering what foods would help her recovery. Is it okay for her to eat chicken, meat, and eggs or should she avoid certain things?
