My eye power is -9 and -10 and still increasing. Which LASIK surgery would be the best option for me given my high prescription? I'm a bit worried about stability since my vision keeps changing.

Please wait till your glass number stabilizes. After that you can meet with your local cornea specialist who will do a couple of tests and then advise which refractive surgery is best suited for you

I've had 3.5 distance vision for the past three years and wear glasses regularly. Lately, I've been seeing a lot about eye surgeries to get rid of glasses and contacts. I went to a well-known hospital for a consultation, and after some tests, the doctor said I'm eligible for LASIK surgery. They mentioned I could live glasses and contact lens-free after the procedure. But I'm a bit worried is LASIK really safe? Once it's done, will I actually be able to see clearly without glasses or contacts?

please approach a surgeon in apollo hospital

i had a corneal infection a while back and now i'm considering lasik surgery but i'm not sure if that makes me ineligible can you explain who typically can't get lasik and also what's the cost for a cornea mapping test

Prior corneal infection may affect LASIK eligibility; corneal mapping (~‚Çπ1,500‚Äì‚Çπ3,000) is essential first.

My left eye has high myopia at 19D and my right eye is at 4D. I was recommended ICL surgery but waiting a year since my power isn't stable my left eye changed from 18D to 19D. Now I'm noticing double vision sometimes with this new prescription. Will this get better on its own or could it be something more serious?
