Second time laser surgery for vision

2022-11-27 04:21:52
I have undergone LASIK surgery at age of 18 years that time my number was -6. After six month -0.5 number came and I went on increasing now I'm 29 and number is -4. Should I go again for laser surgery if tests permits. Is there any chances to number to come again after second surgery.

No, LASIK can't be done now. You will have to choose from other options depending upon the status of eye after proper examination. Please consult your operating Dr for further guidance.

This increase in power can be attributed to the thinning of the cornea. You should avoid any further refractive surgery as of right now. If it is really troublesome then you can plan for ICL
Next Steps
Please consult with a nearby cornea specialist.
