Hello I have read your problem . The patient must be evaluated properly . She has myopia but important thing is that it is pathological or not , means associated with retina problem. If retina is normal and corneal thickness is normal then go for LASIK surgery. If cataract is present then cataract extraction can be done. I think concerned eye can improve. Good luck.
