A member asked:
Is lasik surgery an option if the prescription is between -4.25 to -4.50?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
It is an option, but in general, it is not a good idea to undergo surgery when other treatments are available. The risk of complications, while low is not worth it. You may try contact lenses if you do not like glasses. As you get older, you will still need glasses even after lasik. Get HPV vaccine. Wish you good health!
