1.5 cylinder in right eye can be corrected by laser but 0.5 cylinder in left eye is unlikely to be corrected by laser... as it is too small refractive error to correct
Next Steps
Go ahead with right eye laser only
Health Tips
0.5 cylinder residual error remains in majority of cases even after laser procedure

Of course it can be fully rectified by Lasik. If you have only cylinder number , suggest you get only the right eye treated. The left cylinder is too small to be treated and you will still have excellent vision without glasses. Maskati Eye Clinic opposite Charni road station east , Mumbai
