I'm considering LASIK surgery for my eyes and wanted to know which clinic in Hyderabad would be the best option. I've heard mixed opinions some say Maxi Vision is better than LV Prasad for LASIK, but I'm not sure. Could you share your thoughts on which place has better results and care? Also, what should I look for when choosing a clinic for this procedure?

Lasik is a machine based surgery... It is equally good at all institutions In my personal opinion and experience, LV prasad is a very good institution

I've had this stye on my lower left eyelid for weeks now. The doctor gave me antibiotics for 3 days and told me to use warm compresses, but it hasn't gotten any better. She mentioned an incision might be needed if it doesn't improve, but I'm really scared of any kind of eye surgery. Are there other options besides surgery to treat this stye? It's such a sensitive area and the thought of an operation freaks me out

Need Oral antibiotics ,oral painkillers ,with topical antibiotics n hot compression
