Hello,
Directly coming to point, regarding surgical correction of refractive error of your daughter. It is definitely possible to get it corrected. But ideally you should wait till age of 20 years to get the surgery done. According to the power which you have written, most appropriate surgery would be ICL surgery. You need to consult refractive surgeon in your area for further details.
Hope it helps
