I will be facing the computer 9 to 10 hrs daily.My eyesight is steady from last 2 years. I had a problem previously of drying my tears so with the advise of doctor i used Refresh Tears drop. I wont have any problem with the eyes.
Hello It seems from the history that you are having refractive error of -3.5 myopia and the refractive error is constant without any change from last two years. You can undergo LASIK surgery. But you need to undergo evaluation as you have mentioned about dryness and LASIK surgery is known to cause dryness hence I advice you to undergo consultation with ophthalmologist before under going LASIK surgery to prevent dryness of the eyes following surgery.
Thank you
