You can post your presription numbers here on the site.  I can't really take your medical records since I am not your physician.  If you are on cosopt you are either very high risk for glaucoma damage in the future or you actually have glaucoma.  I would need your glasses prescription to give you a better idea if you are a candidate for refractive surgery.  Is your personal ophthalmologist not availabe to answer your questions because these should be fairly easy for him or her to answer as well.
