Suggest Treatment For Astigmatism And Ocular Albinism
Dear Doctor,
I have a severe astigmatism and a condition known as Ocular albinism. My eye doctor told me that because of my severe astigmatism that I didn't qualify for a laser eye surgery however, this was about 10yrs ago when laser eye surgery was relatively new. I just wanted to know if there where any advancements since then that may grant me a chance at better eye sight,
Sincerely
Juan Miranda
