I've had myopia for the past 18 years and I'm wondering if it can be treated without surgery. What are my options besides LASIK or SMILE and how much do those procedures usually cost?

Small inguinal hernias may be managed conservatively, but no proven Ayurvedic/homeopathy cure; untreated hernias may enlarge or strangulate, risking future complications.

My eyes sometimes get squinty because of intermittent exotropia sometimes they're fine, other times they drift. Is surgery an option to fix this? I'm based in Chennai, so I'd like to know if there are good treatment options here.
Yes, surgery is a common and often effective treatment option for intermittent exotropia, but it's not the only one. Other options include glasses, eye patches, vision therapy, and even Botox injections. The best course of treatment depends on the individual's situation, including the severity and frequency of the eye deviation, as well as any other symptoms like headaches or double vision.
