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?

View allI'm considering ICL surgery but I'm a strict vegetarian and worried about the collamer lenses from STAAR Surgical. I read online that they might be derived from animal sources is that true? If not, where do they come from? And is it possible to get ICL lenses that are 100% plant-based?
No, Collamer lenses used in STAAR Surgical's Visian ICL surgery are not derived from animal sources, and they are not 100% plant-based. They are a synthetic material that is specifically designed to be biocompatible with the eye and not derived from any animal products, though the lens does contain a small amount of purified collagen.

My son was born premature and we noticed a bump on his left eyelid when he closes his eyes. Later, he developed a squint, so we tried glasses and patching as the doctor suggested, but he's not cooperating. Now the doctor recommended squint surgery is 1.6 years too early for the procedure? What are the possible side effects or complications we should be aware of?
Squint surgery, especially in young children, carries several potential risks. These include temporary discomfort or pain, infection, bleeding, and scarring. In rare cases, surgery may lead to over or under-correction of the squint, requiring further procedures or vision problems like double vision. Other complications can include damage to surrounding tissues or nerves, affecting eye movement or vision.
