Hi ..I am forty-eight years old... Can I have LASIK to correct my vision... ??

1 Answer
Dr. Sumeet Agrawal

Ophthalmologist/ Eye Surgeon

Answered on 23rd May '24

Lasik eligibility depends on having a stable vision, eye health, and corneal thickness. At age 48, it's essential to consult an eye care specialist to determine if lasik is suitable for you. Other vision correction options like implantable lenses can be considered if Lasik isn't recommended.

Retina detachment in Left eye doctor says hole occurs in retina screen , opretion must compalsary,but after operation results possibility 50% Is results possibility 100% after operation

Male | 70

The detachment of the retina could lead to symptoms such as the perception of flashes of light or having blurred vision. Surgical hole repair in the retina is the procedure that should be carried out. Post-operation, there is a 50% probability that the results will be better. Occasionally, the success rate can be 100%, but it is not a sure thing. However, it is very crucial to stick to your doctor's directions and take proper care of your eye after the surgery.

i am 21 years old, preparing for government examinations like defense and i am wearing spectacles from 2016 .. and i want to go for eye laser treatment either lasik laser ya contura vision ya simile as prescribed by a doctor is it avaliable in the hospital and how can i verify i am fit for this laser treatment

Male | 21

The hospital will do some tests to find out if you are a proper candidate for the procedure. They will check your eye health, thickness, and shape. For the record, you are 21, wear glasses, and are preparing for exams - you are in a good age group. If they think laser treatment is a good option for you, it can lessen the extent to which you need glasses. Visit an opthalmologist for tests.

Want to know about retina treatment

Male | 50

The retina is a thin film of tissue making the inner surface of your eye that transmits the images outside to your brain. Problems with the retina can lead to serious vision issues. Signs of the problem with the retina you might get are blurred vision, flashes of light that come out of nowhere, and the perception of something that is not there in your field of vision. Causes can range from aging to serious conditions like diabetes. In the case of treatment, the restoration of vision is usually done by a surgical operation on the damaged retina.

Dry eye problem. Watering eyes, blurry vision, burning

Male | 26

Dry eye­ occurs when your eyes do not produce­ adequate tears or the­ tears are poor quality. It can lead to wate­ry eyes, blurred vision, and a burning se­nsation. Potential causes include aging, ce­rtain medications, or extende­d screen time. To he­lp alleviate symptoms, use artificial te­ars, avoid smoke exposure, and take­ breaks from screens. Additionally, fre­quent blinking can help kee­p your eyes moisturized.
