Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors

It is possible to get LASIK surgery with a +5.00 diopter prescription for hyperopia (farsightedness) in one eye and a similar prescription in the other eye, but it depends on several factors, including corneal thickness and overall eye health. A consultation with an ophthalmologist is crucial to determine if you are a suitable candidate.
