Need help of good doctor
I am 24 years old and having eye power of minus 19 in left eye and minus 24 in right eye. Currently I m using contact lenses since 5 years. I wanted to know is there any treatment which can correct my eye sight problem?
Also wanted to know is there any possibility that this number can increase in future with age?

At your age, if refraction stable ,go for ICL/IPCL .This is the best option for you.ICL will cost 1.20lacs for both eyes and IPCL will cost 80k for both eyes.And yes this is possible when your pre icl work up is within normal limits.

Usually number doesn't increase at this age.and if it is stationary for last 2to3 yeas then it's likely to be stable.
There are three options before you other than specs
1.contact lens ( most economic)
2.clear lens extraction &IOL.less expensive (approx 30to 50 k)for both eyes.
3.ICL.the best and most expensive solution ie approx more than 100k.
Now choice is yours.

ICL is a very good option to get rid of glasses
