What are the alternatives to treating myopia?
Optometrists traditionally treat myopia, in all but it most extreme forms (above -12.50 dioptres), with glasses or contact lenses. This makes myopia an ideal condition to treat with either LASIK or PRK. We can treat more severe myopic prescriptions beyond -14 dioptres, but in these cases, we usually recommend Intra-ocular lenses (IOL).
