Hello
Welcome to health care magic.

I reviewed your history.
It seems from the history that your daughter is having refractive error and because of it she is having progressive diminution of vision.
Laser hair removal is not related to diminution of vision.
Progression of refractive error occurs during his age up to 18 years as the eye ball also increases in size.

Hope the information is helpful to you.

Thank you
