Your pescription is well out of the range of lasik. Also with your experiences of retina problems, any surgury will be risky. You could look into IOLs but talk to several doctors if this is even a good idea for you. How well do you see with glasses now? 20/30? 20/40? 20/50?

Thanks for the reply.
With glasses my vision is:-

PMT< -18.00/-2.00 DC X 170 -6/18 - NI
-17.00 DS - 6/18 - NI

Doctos have advised me to go for a LIO.I do not know what is it.Please tell me about it.Should I go for it or not.Is there any risks involved in it.And what is advisable.
