pwede ba isang mata lang?

Sabay po ginagawa. For special cases gaya ng sobrang taas ng grado ng isang mata kumpara po sa isang mata. But di po say mandalas na ginagawa. Kailan makita po ng Doctor nyo po if tanging LASIK lang ang paraan para bumaba yun grade ng mata.

Did the doctor ask you to take gingko biloba for the glaucoma?

It is considered as a food supplement not a cure for glaucoma. So far, there is no cure in glaucoma, we can only prevent it from happening.  Early detection is a must in preventing glaucoma po. Thank you.

My cousin has glaucoma in one eye, and he took gingko as supplement.  Although he doesn't see any improvement, he notice a slight improvement in the other eye.  I also tried it, after 2 months I noticed a reduction of 'floaters'.  Now, after 6 months, I almost don't see then anymore.

Hi , in any gingko biloba supplement, they would put " No therapeutic claims " in the box. It means that it has  not intend to cure the disease or prevent it's progression. Floaters and glaucoma are two different entities. It would be better to have your eyes checked to verify if you truly have floaters or not. Floaters usually come and go after quite some time. Your gingko biloba intake might not contribute to the disappearance of your "floaters". What occur is purely by chance and if it truly effective then it should be repeatable. The effect should be consistent among all patients with the same prolife as you po. Hope this might be of help po.

Or probably due to lack of sleep.  I also notice that the more sleep I have, the less is the occurrence of floaters.  I initially visited an ophthalmologist but I freak out after he recommended a procedure.  Then visited my cousin who has glaucoma and I tried one of his supplements  - gingko biloba!

is there a certain age range wherein lasik is still viable?

Hello good day, there is no age limit when it comes to performing LASIK procedure per se. However, in order to full utilize your investment, we advise the patient to undergo the procedure once the patient reaches 18 years old with a stable refraction for at least 3 months. An eye evaluation is also needed in order to determine if the patient is qualified. Thank you. 

In elderly patients, they may opt for another procedure instead of LASIK since the corneal thickness is thinner compared to a younger patients.

Hope this might be of help.
