No choice at present.Use glasses. After 18 yrs of age ,once refraction is stable and Pre- ICL work up is within normal limits, he can undergo refractive surgery to be independent of glasses.

Hi, Your friend has high myopia in which far vision is a problem for which lenses/glasses are given for correction for distant vision only at such young age. For near vision, glasses have to be removed and then seen. There are other issues also related to such high myopia for which your friend should get evaluated like dilated retinal evaluation for retinal periphery.
Next Steps
Consult a vitreo-retina specialist
Health Tips
