I've had scalp psoriasis for years but it's well controlled with treatment would refractive surgery like LASIK be risky for me or is it safe to go ahead since it's only affecting my scalp?

View allI have 3D myopia in both eyes and I've heard people say myopia can be reduced naturally without surgery. Some claim they lowered their prescription by wearing glasses with 0.25D less power than needed and doing eye exercises like the 20-20-20 rule. Is there any truth to this? Can myopia improve even slightly without surgery?
High myopia and exercises aren’t proven to reduce myopia;specialized slow-progress lenses and lifestyle changes may stabilize vision, but corrections don’t reverse it.

My mom had cataract surgery yesterday and now she's having shivering and fever Is this normal after the procedure What could be causing this
Shivering and fever after cataract surgery, especially a fever above 100.4°F (38°C) for two days, could be a sign of a postoperative fever, a common occurrence after any surgery. While it's usually not serious and resolves on its own, it's important to monitor the symptoms and seek medical advice if it persists or is accompanied by other concerning signs.
