Yes, LASIK surgery is allowed for candidates applying for certain RRB JE positions, but it depends on the medical standards of the respective posts. Candidates applying for posts requiring Medical Standards A-3 are not eligible if they have undergone LASIK surgery

I have a minor corneal scar and I'm wondering if there are any non-surgical treatments like eye drops that can help improve it. Is there anything that can be done without going for surgery?

Some common eye drops for corneal abrasion include erythromycin ointment, ciprofloxacin drops, and moxifloxacin drops. You probably won't need pain relievers. But if you do, your doctor may suggest over-the-counter (OTC) oral nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs)
