Ophthalmologist,  's  Response
Hello
Welcome to Health care Magic.

I am Dr. DADAPEER K, an Ophthalmologist and I answer health problems related to eye.

I reviewed your history. It seems from the history that you and your younger brother are having refractive error in the form of myopia and this requires treatment by the use of glasses to correct the refractive error.
Once the age of the person is 18 years or more and the refractive error is stabilized refractive laser surgery in the form of LASIK can be done.

Hence I advice you to consult your doctor for examination and treatment accordingly.

Hope the information is helpful to you.
Do write back to me for further questions.

Thank you
With regards
I find this answer helpful
