I had LASIK done a while back but lost my records if I need cataract surgery later, could not having those LASIK details cause problems with my vision or eye health

Losing LASIK records generally won't affect future cataract surgery, as the main concern is the health of your eyes. However, knowing your LASIK history can help with understanding any changes in eye health over time.

I had squint surgery when I was 12 because my right eye had poor vision and a noticeable squint. Now my eye seems to have drifted around 25 degrees does this mean my squint is coming back and can I get a second surgery to fix it?

Squint recurrence timing varies by type. Esotropia (inward-turning eye) typically shows signs of recurrence within 1-2 years post-surgery. Exotropia (outward-turning eye) often demonstrates a more gradual drift, becoming noticeable 3-5 years after surgery
