My right eye has a 6D prescription and my left eye is at 8D. Even with glasses, my vision is only 66. Is there any way to get my normal eyesight back maybe through diet, meds, or surgery? I'm really worried about my myopia getting worse.

Question

I just had my Lasik preliminary testing done with Dr Anagha Heroor in Dombivli East and the reports look good. The doctor said I'm a suitable candidate for Lasik but I'm a bit unsure should I go ahead with the surgery now or wait a few years since I'll be pursuing MBA and other courses soon? I don't have any major health issues like diabetes or asthma and I'm not on any regular meds. Would love to hear other ophthalmologists' opinions based on my test reports

Question

My corneal thickness is 576 and 582 and I've been told my corneas are steep with mean K values of 48 and 46.2 but no signs of keratoconus progression. I'm scheduled for Femto LASIK wavefront-guided surgery at AIIMS Delhi with Dr. Jeewan Singh Titiyal, who's a Padma Shri awardee. They estimate my post-op corneal thickness will be 390 and 350 in each eye with a BCVA of 69. I'm worried about complications like irregular flap creation, gas bubble breakthrough, buttonholes, or wrinkles how likely are these in my case given my corneal thickness and steepness? Does a thinner cornea increase these risks?

Question

My eye power is 2.25 in both eyes and I really want to stop wearing spectacles. Is there any treatment or surgery that can help me with this? Could you suggest what options I have?
