Hi
I reviewed your history.
You can undergo LASIK once the refractive power is stable without any increase for atleast 1year. Lasik is safe andeffective in correcting the myopia and other refractive errors. The other options available for correction of high refractive errors are phakic IOL. But in your case lasik is sufficient and it will be effective.
Thank you
