My daughter has been prescribed glasses for her vision issues and I wanted to check if Lasik surgery could help her. Her prescription is Right Eye and Left Eye SPH 7.00, CYL 1.00, Axis 170, Vision DV 66 NV N6 DV. Can Lasik correct her vision at this power level and how effective would it be? Also, what's the cost and how much can her vision improve? What's the maximum power level where Lasik still works?

You hv given glass prescription of one eye or if both eyes are same power, I do not know. Lasik is suitable for 1 to 8 D ..but is a generalized statement ..after thorough check up the doctor can tell you if it is suitable for her or no. The cost varies according to the type and place where you do lasik.
