I'm wearing specks from past 4 years and my power hasn't changed from past 1 year. My power is around 2.75 (myopia). Can I get rid of my specks without a laser treatment?

Definitely you look an eligible candidate with age18 + and stable refractive power. Only Orbscan and Corneal thickness need to match your power. Contact a Refractive Surgeon
