How bad is my vision considered?

Question

My left eye is -2.00 and my right, -1.75.

I was just wondering how bad that was considered, like overall. I'm thinking its somewhere in the middle.

oh and btw: I plan to eventually get lasik eye surgery to correct my vision, and heard that being myopic made it more complicated. Just wondering ;)

Answer 1

that's really not a bad prescription overall, I'd say close to middle range as far as the -2.00, not sure if being myopic vs hyperopic makes much difference as far as Lasik.

Answer 2

You are considered mildy myopic. Guess what? I am a -6.50! BLEAH!

Answer 3

No, correcting myopia with the laser isn't more complicated.

For the first 10 years or so when they started doing laser surgery...myopia was all that could be fixed.

Myopia is the most common correction done with laser surgery.

At a - 1.75 and - 2.00...your correction is still considered as mild....you are a long ways from the " middle "

-5.00 or 6 is more in the " middle"

Answer 4

I think yours isn't bad at all. Not prefect but better than average or low side off average at that... Lasik should be able to correct yours very well then!  Mine is -4.0 ugghh
