my right eye vision is 6/18 can it improve to normal naturally without glasses or surgery
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
A 6/18 vision (also known as 20/60) is considered significantly impaired, and it's unlikely to improve to normal (6/6 or 20/20) vision naturally without glasses or surgery. While certain practices can improve vision-related skills and reduce strain, they cannot alter the underlying refractive error causing the blurry vision.

View allmy 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.

I have a squint in my right eye and I'm considering surgery how effective is it and what's the recovery like? Are there any risks I should know about?
Squint surgery, also known as strabismus surgery, is generally effective in correcting eye misalignment, with most patients seeing significant improvement in their eye alignment. Recovery typically takes a few weeks, with most people returning to normal activities within that time, although complete healing and final alignment can take several weeks or even months. While generally safe, there are some potential risks, including temporary side effects like mild discomfort, redness, or double vision, and in rare cases, more serious complications like infection or vision impairment.
