Terribly bad eye sight.
Hi doctors! My eye sight is very poor. Right eye has a power of -10 and left, around -8.5. I have cylindricity in my eyes as well Without spectacles, I'm practically blind. Can I be cured through laser treatment, retinal/lens transplant, etc.? If not in India, are treatments available abroad? Thank you beforehand.
