ASTIGMATISM QUERY

2017-08-21 12:39:48
I know that imbalance in eye muscles is a major cause of squint in eyes. But I want to know that do high cylindrical power ( -4 D) also causes squint in that eye? Especially if the other eye has very low cylindrical power . Is there any chance of re occurrence of cylindrical power after LASIK surgery? ( Just after a month of it) ?

any difference more than 2.5 or 3 d.causes  anisometropia .,which is the basic cause of squint. hence  in your  case it  maybe the case yes  there are chances of reoccrance  of mild asthmatic error after  lasik.

Yes it is possible. There may be some residual astigmatism and astigmatism can appear due to undezired/unexpected way of healing of cornea.
