How can i treat the worst myopia?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Glasses, etc.: Myopia is corrected to its best limits with eyeglasses or contacts. If not too extreme, LASIK or PRK can be applied. I have found that all myopes, even with moderate amounts consider that they alone have the worst myopia ever. Yours is probably not too bad but check with your ophthalmologist to see in which category you are and what can be done.
