my corneal thickness is 475 in the right eye and 485 in the left eye with a minus 9 power. i'm considering lasik surgery but i'm not sure if my cornea is thick enough for it. can you advise if it's possible in my case?
While a corneal thickness of 475-485 microns in each eye with a -9 diopter prescription might seem borderline for LASIK, it's crucial to understand that corneal thickness is only one factor in determining LASIK suitability. A comprehensive eye exam is needed to assess your overall eye health and the specific needs of your vision correction
