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.

I had PRK surgery 4 months ago and my right eye is 66 vision while the left is 69. With pinhole, the left eye goes to 66. My doctor found a scratch on the corneal stroma in my left eye and prescribed fluorometholone drops with lubricants. I've been using them for 2 months but my vision isn't improving to match the right eye. Why isn't it getting better and what else can be done?

After PRK surgery, if your vision hasn’t improved, the cause might be related to the corneal scratch or dry eye. Further treatments like additional lubrication, steroids, or corrective measures may be required.

I've been wearing specs with a power of 4 and I'm considering laser surgery to get rid of them. Is it safe for my eye power? What's the recovery like and are there any side effects I should know about?

Yes, it's generally safe to undergo laser eye surgery with a prescription of 4.00, and it's considered a good candidate for LASIK. The procedure aims to correct refractive errors, reducing or eliminating the need for glasses or contact lenses. Recovery is usually quick, with most patients regaining vision within a few days. While generally safe, there are potential side effects to be aware of.
