My eyesight prescription is SPH -3.00, CYL -1.50, and AXIS 180 in both eyes. I also have thin corneas would PRK, LASIK, or Contoura Vision be the best surgery option for me?

My myopia is at -7 and keeps getting worse, plus I'm seeing these floaters everywhere. Should I be worried about this? Do I need surgery or is there another way to manage it?
Should you worry about flashes and floaters? Both are very common, especially in older people, and more often than not they are nothing to worry about. If they are bothersome, dark glasses have been found to minimise the presence of floaters and you can discuss options with your optometrist.

I've had esotropia in my right eye for about six months now while my left eye is fine. My glasses prescription is 4.00 for the right eye and 3.75 for the left. Is surgery my only option or are there other ways to fix this squint without going under the knife
No, surgery isn't always the only solution for esotropia. Besides surgery, other treatments for esotropia include glasses, vision therapy, eye patches, or even botox injections in some cases.
