Am I eligible for refractive surgery

2022-11-26 08:17:06
Is ICL is my only option, or are there any alternatives? I have -4 D Spherical  -2.5 Cylindrical in left eye and -8 D Spherical and -2 Cylindrical in right eye. My cornea thickness is 544 and 537 respectively. I've been advised ICL by my doctor. But I wanted to know if there are other options too, since the defence job i am trying for, can't be done with ICL done. Thanks.
