I'm 25 with a 0.50 CYL and 180-degree axis in my right eye and 1.25 CYL with the same axis in my left eye. Would LASIK surgery on the left eye help me achieve 66 vision or is that unrealistic?

My corneal thickness is 576 and 582 and I've been told my corneas are steep with mean K values of 48 and 46.2 but no signs of keratoconus progression. I'm scheduled for Femto LASIK wavefront-guided surgery at AIIMS Delhi with Dr. Jeewan Singh Titiyal, who's a Padma Shri awardee. They estimate my post-op corneal thickness will be 390 and 350 in each eye with a BCVA of 69. I'm worried about complications like irregular flap creation, gas bubble breakthrough, buttonholes, or wrinkles how likely are these in my case given my corneal thickness and steepness? Does a thinner cornea increase these risks?

Your case requires careful surgical planning. Thinner corneas may increase LASIK risks but expert surgeons like Dr. Titiyal manage this well. Discuss CXL if needed.

My mom has been coughing a lot lately and she's scheduled for cataract surgery on January 18th is it safe for her to go ahead with the surgery given her cough

If cough is persistent or productive, reschedule surgery. A chest physician should assess her fitness for anesthesia.
