Should I get a second opinion?

July 8, 2015
Asked By:Ccharpi2 in Bossier City, LA

I have myopia -10, my corneas are normal thickness(not thin). I saw a retinal specialist today, that said everything looked good and I would be fine to go ahead with LASIK, but my Dr. won't do LASIK b/c of my high myopia of -10. I have read where other people have had success with more severe myopia than me.
