Warning to those considering LASIK eye surgerygreenspun.com : LUSENET : Unk's Wild Wild West : One Thread |
I always figured it was a scam. This site was discussed on NBC News tonight:
Well, PRK was the only treatment for what I had as far as fixing my corneas since the surface would slough at the drop of a lid some days. I can't praise the results enough. My vision is better now than it had been for 20 years before the surgery, and I don't hurt every 3 or 4 days.CDND

Sounds like some greedy yuppies found a way to get rich quick. Anyone could do it. Get Lasik surgery, come back a few days later and tell them your vision is worse than it was. How will they know? Sue them for malpractice and go into early retirement. But the big question is... will you be able to live with yourself??
