Hello,
if you frequently have to change your glasses,then it could be progressive ,a condition like keratoconus.which ,if not treated ,can be vision threatening.Whether Lasik can be done or not,depends on a test called PENTACAM,which we do at our institute!nd we also have a variety of treatments available like collagen cross-linking and toric ICL for people with such high numbers.
