Query for eye power change
My eye power two and half years back was -5.5 SPH, -2 CYL (Right eye) and -5 SPH, -1 CYL (Left eye), with180 axis and 6/6 vision each. Recently I underwent complete eye checkup for LASIK. My power on the left eye has slightly increased to -5.25 SPH. Doctor said my eyes were normal and said surgery can be performed. Is the increase considered normal? (I don't have the glass prescription for the in-between period, so not sure, when the change happened). Can I undergo the surgery, without worrying of complications?
First of all, please believe your LASIK surgeon and have faith or consult a surgeon upon whom you trust . 0.25D change is not significant , LASIK surgery candidacy is based upon pre LASIK work up. Please talk to your surgeon regarding apprehension . Ultimate suggestion will be get it done only if you have faith over your surgeon else find other surgeon . Doubtful personality affects result of LASIK and it is a well known fact.
Next Steps
please visit LASIK center again with your query and get sorted out
