My daughter aged 30 has been using specs as her long distance vision is weak. The power is constant for the last 3 years. It is 1 in the left eye and .75 in the right eye.
We want to get her operated to remove specs for ever.
Please inform the process for her admission in the hospital and expected expenditure?
Hello It seems from the history that your daughter is having refractive error in the form of myopia and wants to undergo refractive laser surgery like LASIK. LASIK can correct up to -10 dioptres of myopia and in her case it is only -1, hence it can readily be corrected. The other requirements like age of more than 18 years or more and presence of stable refraction for last 1 year.... all of these your daughter full fils, hence she can undergo LASIK. The cost of surgery is around rs.35,000 for both the eyes and it is a day care procedure and admission is not required.
Thank you
