I'm suffering from thyroid eye disease and currently getting treated at AIIMS New Delhi. They recommended decompression surgery but the ENT department doesn't have any near dates available for the procedure. Can you suggest the best surgeon for this surgery? I'm really worried about the delay in treatment.

I'm a 27-year-old guy with good vision but I have a lazy eye. Sometimes my left eye drifts outward and other times it's my right eye. Is there a permanent surgery to fix this?

Yes, a type of surgery called strabismus surgery can address eye misalignment, including drifting or wandering eyes (exotropia), and can potentially correct or improve the issue. However, it's important to understand that this surgery corrects the eye misalignment, and not necessarily the "lazy eye" or amblyopia itself

i'm trying to decide between contoura vision and smile surgery but i'm confused about the side effects and why contoura is considered better even though it's cheaper than smile can you explain which one would be the better option overall

Contoura offers better customization for corneal irregularities; SMILE has less dry eye and no flap. Choose based on your corneal thickness and lifestyle. Consult a refractive surgeon for suitability.
