laser surgery

another opthalmologist just told me that i am not suffering from exotrophia, but just an eye power problem. i was told by him that my right eye has a positive number and the right eye goes out of focus towards my ear when m not wearing glasses. he will be able to reduce it to normal by laser. i would like to know how much could be the success chance in my case and does the laser have major side effects?

Dear sumikhi,

I would recommend that you speak further with your eyeMD.  Does your eye turn out because you are not using your eye? If you obtained a contact lens, is the eye straight?  These answers will assist in determining whether a laser treatment might help to reduce the turning.
