My right eye has CCT 498 with 3.00 power and Km 44.9 D front, while my left eye has CCT 505 with 3.50 power and Km 46.2 D front. Am I a good candidate for FemtoLasik CXL surgery? How much corneal tissue would need to be removed for the flap and vision correction? What should my corneal thickness ideally be for this procedure?

Question

My right eye has SPH 13.0, CYL 2.0, and AXIS 170, while my left eye has SPH 7.5, CYL 1.5, and AXIS 175. I currently wear glasses but I'm considering LASIK surgery would I be a good candidate for it with these numbers? I'm a bit worried about the high SPH in my right eye and how that might affect the results.

Question

I have a power of around -7 to -7.5 in both eyes and I'm wondering if I'm eligible for LASIK surgery. What are the chances it'll work for me and how much would the procedure cost?

Question

I have keratoconus in both eyes and I'm really confused about my options. One doctor suggested surgery while another said contact lenses are better than surgery and recommended trying them first. I'm only 17 and not sure what to choose should I go for contacts or consider surgery right away? What would be the best option for someone my age?
