My cornea thickness is 410 microns and I'm considering C3R eye surgery. Is this thickness enough for the procedure or do I need to meet specific minimum requirements? I'm a bit worried about whether my eyes are suitable for it.

A cornea thickness of 410 microns may not be suitable for C3R surgery. While C3R can be performed with thinner corneas, it's crucial to maintain a minimum corneal thickness after the procedure to avoid complications like ectasia. Generally, a minimum stromal thickness of 330 microns is recommended.

My right eye power is 2.75 and left is 3. I wear contact lenses for about 10 hours daily and had laser surgery 10 years ago. For the last 3 years, my vision has been blurry. Can this be corrected? I prefer Ayurveda and take triphala powder with water every night. Are there any medicines, exercises, or dietary changes that could help me stop depending on glasses or contacts
