Recently Answered Questions on Refract

I am 32 years old with refractive errors -2.25 on both the eyes. On examining my eyes for Lasik suitability, a little skewness was observed. Doctors informed that it may be due to use of contact lens within 6 months of checkup which I have used. I would like to know whether Lasik is advisable at my age and what are all the complications that I may have to face due to age factor or is it a myth that only teens are suitable for Lasik.

Hello, I have an 8-year-old patient with a refractive error of -0.75DS, therefore they're myopic. This is the only information I have on the patient. I am not quite sure what this patient's Snellen visual acuity will be as they're young. Therefore I am not quite sure whether to prescribe a prescription or not. Also if a prescription is given, should the child wear their glasses at all times? (I'm an optometry student and this is part of a project). Thank you.
