My eye power is -9 and -10 and still increasing. Which LASIK surgery would be the best option for me given my high prescription? I'm a bit worried about stability since my vision keeps changing.

Please wait till your glass number stabilizes. After that you can meet with your local cornea specialist who will do a couple of tests and then advise which refractive surgery is best suited for you

I have a cylindrical power of 4 in my right eye can this be corrected with surgery or are there other ways to reduce it? I'm worried about whether it's even possible to fully get rid of it
