Hello
It seems from the history that you are having refractive error in the form of astigmatism.
This can be corrected by refractive laser surgeries like LASIK.
You can undergo LASIK surgery. C- LASIK indicates customized LASIK and bladeless LASIK indicate femtosecond laser or intralase lasik.
Bladeless lasik is the recent surgery and it is very safe compared to c- LASIK.
Hence I suggest you to undergo bladeless lasik.

Thank you
