I recently got an eye checkup and found out I have 0.75 CYL in my prescription. I really don't want to wear glasses or contacts or go for surgery. The doctor recommended glasses, but I'm not keen on that. Are there any natural ways to improve my eyesight, like diet changes or simple eye exercises?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
0.75 CYL may be managed with exercises and screen hygiene, but no proven natural cure—glasses or contact lenses are most effective.

View allI have intermittent exotropia in both eyes where one eye turns out every 1-2 minutes, sometimes left and sometimes right. A squint specialist recommended surgery as the only option, suggesting a 2-muscle procedure on just one eye. He said the brain would adjust and prevent the other eye from turning out afterward. Is this approach correct? He's a pediatric ophthalmologist with 16 years of experience, but I'm unsure about only operating on one eye when both are affected. Does this sound like the right plan?
Yes he is right. As our eyes should work simultaneously. So if we do surgery on one eye, the effect will be total for both eyes. It's not like that if your right eye is going out means we have to operate that eye only . On examination, whatever the non dominant eye will be operated. And some exercises will be needed after surgery to maintain

My dad has cataract in his right eye and the clinic recommended surgery. I'm confused about whether to choose laser cataract surgery or the traditional blade method what are the pros and cons of each? I want to make sure we pick the best option for him
Both laser-assisted and traditional cataract surgery methods are effective, but laser-assisted surgery often offers greater precision and potentially faster recovery. The best choice depends on individual needs and preferences, including eye health, underlying medical conditions, and desired outcomes
