and laser eye surgery

Corrective eye laser surgery if you have a prism?

Can anyone advise me please. I have a prism in my eye prescription as i have a a slight lazy eye especially when my eyes are tired. I am also short sighted. Would i still be able to get laser eye surgery and be free of wearing glalasik lasek this be more expensive that the usual LASIK LASEK procedure?

You can still get the surgery to eliminate everything but the lazy eye. Lazy eye actually has a surgery for it as well.. although I do not recommend it. If you lazy is is always there,.. meaning it isn’t intermittent then there isn’t much point in laser surgery as the optician said, you will need to continue to wear glasses. If it is intermittent, transient then usually eye exercises (aka : eye therapy) can help .. even patching or atropine drops in dominant eye for many months can help things out.

Anyhow, if it only happens when tired, then you could have the surgery and when fresh things would be good — when tired you could put on glasses with prisms alone (or at your new corrected prescription + prisms).

I have a lazy eye as well that only occurs when I get extremely tired as well. Which is why I mention the eye therapy for people who have intermittent lazy eye.

Wish you the best..
