I had cataract surgery 4 months ago and was prescribed systane ultra eye drops with polyethylene glycol and propylene glycol to use twice daily for a year. It's quite expensive are there any other options for managing dry eyes that might be more affordable? Sometimes my eyes still feel dry even with the drops.

my left eye has sph 6 and cyl 2.75 while my right eye is sph 5 and cyl 2 can I still get laser surgery to correct my vision
Yes, it's likely you're still a candidate for laser eye surgery (like LASIK) even with your prescription. While your prescription is on the higher end, many procedures can handle prescriptions up to +6 diopters for farsightedness and -12 diopters for nearsightedness, as well as astigmatism up to 6 diopters. However, individual cases can vary, and a consultation with a qualified eye surgeon is crucial for a personalized assessment of your suitability.
