hi, i remember that a few months back, i went for aadhar updation and my eyes were not coming correctly, so he had an option to exclude it. i suggest you to kindly visit the aadhar offices not the enrolement center, they'll be able you to guide better. the list of aadhar offices is available on there website, you can find the address and go there.
