Which is better for my eyes custom LASIK or Intralase LASIK? I'm trying to decide but not sure about the differences in safety, recovery, and results. My prescription isn't too high but I do have some dryness would one be gentler than the other?

I have myopia with 5 and 4 power in my right and left eye and recently started seeing flashes. I also have retinal degeneration. I've seen four doctors two recommended barrage laser as a precaution while the other two said to wait unless my retina detaches. I'm 28 and unsure if I should get the laser done now or wait. If I do go for it, should it be done in one session for both eyes or split into multiple sittings? What would you suggest?
Barrage laser can prevent retinal detachment in high-risk degeneration; it’s usually safe to do both eyes in one sitting—go ahead if advised by retina specialist.

I've had esotropia since I was 3 years old can it be fixed with glasses or is surgery the only option? If surgery is needed, which state in India has the best specialists for esotropic eye surgery? Also, what's the approximate cost for the surgery?
Esotropia (where the eye turns inward) can sometimes be corrected with glasses, particularly in cases of accommodative esotropia. However, if it's a non-accommodative esotropia or infantile esotropia, surgery is often the primary treatment
