If your number has not progressed for the last one year you are s good candidate for laser to get rid of your spectacles. If you are a contact lens wearer, stop wearing them for 15 days prior to laser treatment . Your eye doctor will measure the thickness of your Cornea and then tell you if he will be able to get rid of the full number . Maskatieyeclinic Opposite Charni road station east, Mumbai
