I had Lasik surgery 5 years ago but my vision has gotten worse again now I have -0.75 in my left eye and -1.75 in my right eye. Is implantable contact lens surgery an option for me at this point? I'm worried about my vision getting worse and want to explore other permanent solutions.

View allI've been using preservative-free lubricant eye drops for about 10 months after my LASIK surgery and I'm wondering if long-term use is safe for my eyes. Are there any side effects I should be aware of with either preservative or preservative-free drops? I'm a bit concerned about potential harm from using them for so long.
It depends. Every LASIK patient experiences different levels of dryness and can use preservative-free eye drops after LASIK until the dryness abates. However, if you experience extreme and persistent dryness, do bring it to the attention of your doctor.

My eye power is -11 in both eyes and I really want to get rid of my glasses. Is there any treatment or surgery that can help me? Could you suggest what options might work for my case?
If you're tired of wearing eyeglasses or contact lenses, you may wonder whether LASIK surgery is right for you. LASIK is short for laser-assisted in situ keratomileusis. It is a surgery to correct blurry vision. The result of LASIK surgery for more than 99% of people is 20/40 vision or better.

I'm a 49-year-old man who's been dealing with eye floaters for about 3 months now. Are there any effective treatments for this condition? Is surgery a good option or too risky? Can medications or eye drops help clear up floaters? I've heard about homeopathy and ayurveda for this - do those actually work or is it better to stick with conventional treatments?
Treatment include vitrectomy,to remove the floater, laser treatment or vitreolysis.
