My vision is 66 in both eyes with glasses and I have a high power of 7D. Is Lasik surgery an option for me to get rid of glasses and have normal vision?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
With power of -7D, LASIK is possible if corneal thickness allows; consult for topography—options like SMILE or ICL may be better in high myopia.

My mother has been diagnosed with early-stage cataracts in both eyes but they're not fully formed yet. Should she consider surgery now or wait until they're more advanced? Also, is it safe to operate on both eyes within two days one eye one day and the next eye the following day? What else should we keep in mind about the procedure and recovery?
It's generally advisable to have cataract surgery when it starts impacting daily life, whether the cataracts are early or more advanced. Waiting for cataracts to fully mature isn't necessary and can sometimes lead to complications. Operating on both eyes within two days, one day per eye, is generally considered safe and can be beneficial for quicker recovery and convenience. However, individual circumstances and medical history should be discussed with the ophthalmologist
