I live in a city where no doctors offer Contoura vision surgery, so I'd have to fly elsewhere to get it done. But I'm not sure if I'm even a good candidate for it I don't want to travel all that way just to find out I can't get the procedure. Here are my details: RE sph -1.75 cyl -1.60 axis 15 VA 20/20 LE sph -1.50 cyl -1.25 axis 7 VA 20/20 IPD 69 My eye pressure is healthy, I have very mild dry eyes (not severe), and I've been diagnosed with astigmatism and myopia. Could I possibly be a candidate for Contoura vision?

Get a pre-op screening first; if eligible, only then travel‚Äîmost centers will assess your eye shape and thickness.
