Can laser eye surgery fix a lazy eye?
In general, if you are referring to an eye muscle disorder in which the eye position is not straight, there is no laser for these procedures yet. Most eye muscle surgeries are traditional surgeries in which muscles are moved to new positions on the eye using an operating microscope or mounted loupe spectacles with high magnification. There are no skin incisions and of course the eye is never removed ( a common public concern). Repositioning the eye muscles takes a highly skilled expert in "strabismus" and most of us that do this are also pediatric ophthalmologists.
In children who have amblyopia, or a visually lazy eye, the treatments continue to be glasses and patch therapy. The headlines in today's papers as you may have read concern new intraocular implants that are being researched to treat amblyopia in some children who have one really near or far sighted eye and either cannot wear glasses due to the high difference in power, or will not tolerate a contact lens. Unfortunately such procedures are without a documented track record, and are new. Also none of them are used for adults as the brain and the eye complete almost all visual development by the late teens.
What Hindus views on transplant surgery?
Hindus have many different views on Transplant Surgery, It depends on which Hindu teachings you follow or refer to.
Firstly many Hindus believe that the body is NOT important, it's the Atman (soul) that we must look after.
If you carry a donor card, which many Hindus do, you are helping someone: therefore you will get good Karma. Hindus believe that when a body dies the Atman lives on.
A Hindus goal in life is to gain Moksha, so if you carry out a transplant you are saving a life therefore achieving good Karma.
Some Hindus believe that if you have a heart transplant, and the heart belonged to a thief, you will get their Karma.
Also if a doctor is trying to save your life, he/she is playing the role o God which is bad!
Hope this helped! J
