What caused my optic atrophy and is lasik still possible?
I have been diagnosed with optic atrophy whenever I was about 3 months old, by a pediatric ophthalmologist, because I was totally blind. They haven’t told me what caused it though, but it must be genetic. I also have a nystagmus in both eyes. My eyesight has improved, I can see with contacts -I now have contacts that correct one eye to 20/40 acuity but my right eye’s acuity is merely 20/200. My condition seems to be very rare, and there is no information on this, since the only symptoms are the atrophy and the nystagmus. I was wondering if anybody could tell me some more and if anyone knows whether lasik surgery is possible on both eyes, since I am practically half blind. Thank you!
