I'm 28 and I've got a prescription of -5 in both eyes. I'm thinking about getting LASIK surgery. Do you think that's a good option for me? Also, are there any reputable hospitals in or near Kolkata that you'd recommend for this procedure?

I've been noticing something weird lately. Every morning when I wake up, everything I look at seems to have this orange tint to it. It usually goes away after a few minutes, but it's starting to worry me a bit. I'm 29, and I'm not sure if this is something serious or if there might be an underlying cause I should be aware of. Any insights into what might be happening, or suggestions on what I should do next?

I'm worried about my daughter's vision because she tends to watch TV, read books, and use her phone really close to her eyes. I tried testing her sight by asking her to stand about 2 meters away from a whiteboard to read some letters, but she couldn't identify them all. What should I do?
