Hello Sowmya,

Thank you for your question! 😊 It’s great that you’re exploring vision correction options like SMILE eye surgery.

Is SMILE Procedure Good for a 25-Year-Old Female?

Yes, the SMILE (Small Incision Lenticule Extraction) procedure is generally safe and effective for healthy individuals over 18 years old—including women aged 25—if your eye prescription has been stable for at least 1 year.

Who is a Good Candidate for SMILE?

• Age 18 or above (✔️ you're 25)

• Stable vision for at least 12 months

• Mild to moderate myopia (near-sightedness) and astigmatism

• Healthy cornea with no history of eye infections or diseases

• Not pregnant or breastfeeding (as hormonal changes may affect vision)

Benefits of SMILE Eye Surgery

• Minimally invasive with a small incision (no flap like LASIK)

• Faster healing and less dry eye

• Less discomfort post-surgery

• Quick visual recovery

Next Steps

• Get a pre-surgery eye evaluation to check corneal thickness, eye power stability, and overall eye health.

• Consult with a refractive surgeon or ophthalmologist to confirm eligibility.

Hello Shivam Sharma ji,

If you are experiencing continuous headache, eye pain, and vomiting tendencies for the past 3–4 days, it’s important not to ignore these symptoms. Based on what you’ve described, here are possible causes and next steps:

Possible Causes of Headache and Vomiting

1. Cervical Spondylitis

   • If your symptoms worsen while using a mobile, laptop, or sitting for long hours, cervical issues could be the cause.

   • It often results in neck stiffness, radiating headaches, and visual disturbances.

2. Refractive Error (Eye Number Issue)

   • Uncorrected vision problems may cause eye strain, persistent headaches, and even nausea.

   • Especially common if you’ve been reading, driving, or on screens a lot.

3. Migraine

   • A migraine often comes with throbbing pain on one side, eye pain, and nausea or vomiting.

   • It can be triggered by stress, lack of sleep, or certain foods.

Tips That Can Help

• Take regular screen breaks (20-20-20 rule: every 20 mins, look 20 feet away for 20 seconds).

• Avoid loud noises and bright light if you're sensitive.

• Apply a cold or warm compress to your forehead or neck.

• Stay hydrated and avoid skipping meals.

• Get 7–8 hours of proper sleep every night.

• Practice neck stretches and gentle exercises if posture-related.

• Avoid caffeine, processed food, or anything that may trigger migraines.

What Should You Do Next?

• Consult a doctor to determine the exact cause—preferably a neurologist or an ENT specialist.

• You may need:

  • Eye check-up (to rule out refractive error)

  • Cervical X-ray or MRI (if pain radiates to neck and shoulder)

  • Neurological evaluation for migraine or any intracranial cause
