Q: My 31 years old wife has spectacles with a power of spherical: - 9.5, cylindrical: -1.5 and axis: 90 in her right eye and the left eye’s power is spherical: -7.5, cylindrical: -1.0 and axis: 45. Her power is increasing slightly every six months to one year when she goes to the doctor. She wears spectacles but the doctor has advised toric lenses. What should be the ideal power of the toric lenses? Can she go for Lasik surgery?

A:There is no limit for toric lenses as long as patient can tolerate and manage it. She will benefit from LASIK surgery especially with Femtosecond LASER about, which your own specialist will advise better.
