Which age range is good for doing LASIK surgery ??



Posted by:  SophiaCruz(Guest)  Posted on: 11/06/2011
Thank you very much for the information. I have undergone lasik once, but, in the experimental stage, so the power is back to -6. I also had laser for bleeding behind the retina. This included Avastin - 3 times. Could I go for lasik to reduce power? Regards Sophia

I am 30 years old and a Software engineer at Bangalore. My power is LE -4 and RE - 8.5 but wearing LE -2.5 and RE - 4.0 with cylindrical due to double vision if it is correct power. I am very comfortable with glasses and dont want to take any unnecessary risk with my eyes. The reason why i prefer to go[if doctors agree so] for lasik is due to severe headache and not able to concentrate while driving with glasses. I will be doing at Netradhama at Bangalore.(most probably Dr. Sri Ganesh). Any advises or recommendations
