My mom needs cataract surgery and the surgeon explained the lens options really well but was vague about the actual technique he just mentioned MICS and said to leave it to him. Is MICS safe for her and how exactly is it done? I'm a bit worried since he didn't share more details

My eyes sometimes get squinty because of intermittent exotropia sometimes they're fine, other times they drift. Is surgery an option to fix this? I'm based in Chennai, so I'd like to know if there are good treatment options here.
Yes, surgery is a common and often effective treatment option for intermittent exotropia, but it's not the only one. Other options include glasses, eye patches, vision therapy, and even Botox injections. The best course of treatment depends on the individual's situation, including the severity and frequency of the eye deviation, as well as any other symptoms like headaches or double vision.

my eyes have a power of 5 at age 28 is lasik surgery a good option for me and can you suggest some reliable hospitals in kolkata for the procedure
At age 28 with a -5 diopter prescription, LASIK surgery is a good option for correcting your vision. Many surgeons consider the age range between 20 and 40 ideal for LASIK, as vision tends to stabilize during these years. A prescription of -5 diopters is within the range typically considered suitable for LASIK.
