Question 1

My left eye has a prescription of SPH 3.00, CYL 3.00, and AXIS 160 with VA 6/24 0.60P, but even with glasses, distant small letters still look blurry. Is LASIK surgery the best option for me? I keep failing the armed forces medical exam because of my eye issues what's the fastest way to fix this? My left eye is the main problem how can I get it corrected to meet the 6/6 vision requirement? Can you review my test reports if I share them?

Accepted Answer

ophthal opinion is advised to the pt.

Question 2

I'm a 23-year-old male with eyesight above 7 in both eyes and considering LASIK surgery. A clinic asked me to get a corneal scan test for Rs 3500 to check if I'm eligible. 
 
 Can I do the pre-tests at one hospital and the actual LASIK at another? Will the second hospital accept the reports or make me retest? 
 
 Also, two hospitals quoted different prices for the scan Rs 2000 and Rs 3500. Since it's a machine-based test, does going for the cheaper option affect accuracy or should I pay more for better quality?

Accepted Answer

ophthal opinion is advised for tt.

I've had a partial squint since birth where one eye stays centered when I look to the side left eye when looking right, right eye when looking left. But both eyes work fine when looking straight ahead. Is there a surgery to fix this now? If yes, can you suggest hospitals and contact details?
