I had LASIK surgery on August 18 and my vision is now perfect, but I've been noticing starbursts around lights at night. What causes these starbursts after LASIK? Will they go away on their own?

Whether surgery is needed depends on the exact diagnosis, size, and severity of the condition. Some cases can be managed without surgery, while others may require it for effective treatment. A detailed evaluation will help decide the best course of action.

I'm highly myopic and considering strabismus surgery but worried about pain and double vision afterward does the procedure hurt and how common are these risks for someone with severe nearsightedness?
Strabismus surgery generally involves minimal pain, with most patients experiencing mild discomfort that can be managed with over-the-counter pain relievers. Double vision (diplopia) is a more common concern, but it's often temporary, with many experiencing a significant improvement within the first few weeks. While severe nearsightedness (high myopia) doesn't necessarily increase the risk of pain or double vision, it can be a factor in the success of the surgery and the need for post-operative adjustments, so it's important to discuss this with your surgeon
