I had LASIK done a while back but I lost all the records from the procedure. If I need cataract surgery later on, will not having those LASIK details cause problems for my vision or eye health?

LASIK history helps in planning cataract surgery later but not always mandatory.Special imaging and intraocular lens selection may still allow safe surgery.

Question

Had Lasik surgery 5 years back but my vision's getting blurry again left eye is -0.75 and right eye is -1.75 now. Are there any homeopathic treatments that can help fix this?

I've had a constant power for the last 2 years and I'm 23 years old. Here are my readings: left eye SPH 6.25 CYL 2.75 AXIS 180, right eye SPH 7.5 CYL 1.5 AXIS 5. Am I eligible for LASIK surgery? What are the chances if not, and are there other options with minimal risk like LASIK?

Question

My left eye has a prescription of SPH 3.00, CYL 3.00, and AXIS 160 with VA 6/24 0.60P, but even with glasses, distant small letters still look blurry. Is LASIK surgery the best option for me? I keep failing the armed forces medical exam because of my eye issues what's the fastest way to fix this? My left eye is the main problem how can I get it corrected to meet the 6/6 vision requirement? Can you review my test reports if I share them?
