I had a check on my eyes to see if i am a good candidate and these are the results I was given:

O.D. -5.25, -1.50, axis 020,
6.5 mm, cornea 495.

O.S. -5.00, -0.75, axis 165
6.5 mm, cornea 498

Can you please advice on what procedure to do! I was told by the Dr. that my corneas might be thin for Lasik and that I should consider a different option. Are my corneas too thin? Am I in high risk if I decide on Lasik? I dont know much about this stuff and would like to be adviced on this matter.

thanks in advance!
