Brief Answer:
Customised lasik is the best

Detailed Answer:
Hey thanks for the question. The doctor will need to check your corneal contour and thickness with a corneal scan . Your retina ( back of the eye ) will need to be tested for any weak areas . If everything is ok you can go for lasik . Customised lasik is good . Femto lasik is another option but it is a littel expensive than customised . You should discuss all options with the surgeon and take action accordingly. Hope it helps .
