I'm 25 with a 0.50 CYL and 180-degree axis in my right eye and 1.25 CYL with the same axis in my left eye. Would LASIK surgery on the left eye help me achieve 66 vision or is that unrealistic?

What's your vision with glasses at present? Or just send me ur current glass prescription.

just had cataract surgery this morning and was told to use eye drops but my eyes are also watery from a cold can i take cold medicine too or will it interfere with the surgery

After cataract surgery, it‚Äôs safe to take cold medicine, but be cautious if it contains decongestants, as they can increase blood pressure. It‚Äôs best to consult your eye doctor for specific instructions about medications during recovery.
