My eye examination says I have (-2.25/-6.75x165) on the right eye and on the left eye is (+0.75/-9.25x10), is my astigmatism good or bad? Before I go back to my eye appointment next week, I just wanna know, is this astigmatism good or bad?

The most important question is how is your vision in your eyes? If it is good then you probably did not cause serious damage. If however your vision is poor or worse then you need to see your surgeon asap. If the vision is good, tearing is improving and you don't have any pain or thick yellow or...
As an MMA
fighter, you should consider a surface treatment such as LASEK which in my
opinion would be safer for you than LASIK. Yes, with LASIK a blow to the eye could dislodge your flap,
even after 6 months. With LASEK,
there is no flap, and you can completely avoid this concern.
Approximately 1-2% of patients who have custom Intralase LASIK will require refinement procedures due to their individual response to the excimer laser treatment. It is our policy to wait three months before refinement in order to assure refractive stability.
