QUERY WITH LASIK
Can I have Lasik or smile surgery if my eyes are fit for it but have 15 degrees squint ( extropia) in my right eye? I had undergone squint surgery when I was 8 years old in the same eye but now it has appeared again, however it is intermittent. My left eye has not any squint. After working for some time  on computer, my right eye appears deviated outwards to some degree but after some time it gets back to normal. Do Lasik or Smile worsens squint? My eye prescriptions is Right eye -4.00 -3.25×174° Left eye -6.25 -2.00×4° I have no other disease like Thyroid, Diabetes etc. I don't smoke or drink either. I am wearing specs since I was 8 years old. Now I am 25 years of age. Should I go for Squint surgery first then have Lasik or smile or I should go for Lasik or smile surgery directly? Please help Thanks

Lasik or Smile LASIK has no relation with squint , lasik is basically corneal surgery &you may undergo without Squint Surgery.
