Hi, thanks for the AMA. I am -7.5 in one eye and -7 in the other. Is there a lower limit where you wouldn't offer LASIK? Are any risks increased when the degree of correction is bigger?

Hi, I'm a veterinarian doing exclusively surgery at a referral hospital. I'm very interested in trying to get good quality videos of surgery mostly for teaching purposes. I have experimented with head-mounted cameras but have found that it's very hard to keep your head as still as you would think. The "drift" which you compensate for with your eye movements is significant (and nausea inducing in viewers!). We don't really have the money to have a designed-for-purpose light mounted cam. Do you have any tips on the best hardware to use that will cope well with a) the limited colour palate (e.g. it's all red!), b) the bright lighting c) the focussing in sometimes deep cavities, and that we could rig up ourselves affordably? Thanks very much for doing this AMA!
