I have an 11.5 power in my glasses and I'm considering Lasik surgery is it usually a one-time procedure or are follow-ups needed? Also, what's the approximate cost and which are the best clinics in Hyderabad for this? I'm a bit nervous about the whole process and want to make sure I pick the right place.

I had squint surgery in both eyes a year ago but still notice some residual squint sometimes I also have astigmatism and have worn glasses since childhood - my right eye has CYL 1 axis 10 and left eye CYL 2 axis 160 Can LASIK fix my astigmatism completely and would it help correct the remaining squint issues too I'm 26 and really want to properly address both problems
LASIK surgery can effectively address astigmatism, including your specific CYL 1 axis 10 and CYL 2 axis 160 values. However, LASIK does not correct squint, which is a misalignment of the eyes. Addressing residual squint after surgery will likely require further evaluation and potentially additional surgical adjustments.

I'm getting LASIK surgery at AIIMS Delhi in July for astigmatism, but I'm worried about human error in the prescription. Since refraction tests are subjective, how do surgeons make sure they program the machine exactly right? What if my astigmatism axis or power is slightly off on surgery day? Do they recheck my eye power right before the procedure to avoid mistakes?
To address your concerns about LASIK surgery at AIIMS Delhi, it's reassuring to know that modern techniques and advanced technology minimize errors. Surgeons use precise measurements and techniques, including rechecking your eye power right before the procedure, to ensure accuracy.
