I'm 20 years old and wear high-index glasses. I'm trying to figure out which eye surgery would be better for me LASIK blade-free or ReLEx SMILE. Can you help me understand the pros and cons of each? I'm a bit worried about making the right choice.

View allMy eyesight is weak with 1.5 D in the left eye and 1 D in the right. What are some natural ways to improve my vision? Also, if I consider laser surgery, how much would it cost?
To naturally improve vision, focus on a balanced diet rich in vitamins A, C, E, and zinc. Regular eye exercises and reducing screen time are also helpful. Laser surgery (like LASIK) for vision correction can cost between ‚Çπ30,000 to ‚Çπ1,00,000 per eye in India, but the exact cost depends on various factors.

I 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
