| Christina,
I seem to recall that in one of the wavefront clinical trials, 10% of
the patients were dissatisfied. That is a lot when you are considering
that this is the newest, best technology and the surgery is permanent.
There is no going back to your virgin corneas once you've been lasered.
If you ask the right questions, you can almost always find that
patients have SOME sort of problem with their LASIK, be it dry eye,
some night vision problems, some recurring pain, vision that is not as
crisp as before surgery, etc etc etc.
Glasses and contact lenses can do what corneal refractive surgery
cannot... reliably give you your best corrected vision and be easily
changed as your eyes change naturally with age. If you have laser eye
surgery you are stuck with the results, even if they are bad.
And you are stuck with weaker, damaged corneas, too!
I haven't heard many stories of patients with poor outcomes being
'fixed' by an enhancement and regaining good crisp normal vision.
Have you read the LASIK report?
Go to http://thelasikreport.com , read the short article, and you will
learn everything you need to know to protect yourself in the aggressive
laser eye surgery market. It's a big business, and your vision is at
stake!
