L.A.S.I.K Reality So your thinking about having L.A.S.I.K. Your tired of those glasses or contacts and your fed up with poor vision. You have attended a seminar on L.A.S.I.K hosted by your friendly local L.A.S.I.K surgeon and you have only heard good things about the "20 minute miracle". You got your facts and if you act today there is a 10% discount. Your ready for your surgery, Right?...WRONG! L.A.S.I.K is a surgical procedure with all the inherent risks of a surgical procedure. The rate of complications is often grossly understated by people in an industry which stands to make money by the truckload in an medical economy devastated by HMO's. L.A.S.I.K can ruin your life if something goes wrong there are no guarantees of functional vision after the procedure! In reality, you are taking the biggest risk of your life when dealing with the surgical "reshaping" of your cornea. Slick advertising and sometimes blatant lies have lured you into believing that L.A.S.I.K is the safest, most tried and true procedure in the world. The reality is this surgery is still being tested and perfected and you are the guinea pig! What's the big deal you think even if something goes wrong the doctor will know how to fix it, right?... WRONG. Often, when complications occur, doctors cannot fix the problem. I am living proof of that with permanent wrinkles in my eyes as well as haze and epithelial inclusions. My doctor dismissed these "minor" problems and sent me on my way with a pat on the back and my money in his pocket. Your doctor could do the same, leaving you with mangled vision and no where to turn. Before you have any surgery you should know the facts. Unfortunately, you may not get all the facts from someone who has major financial interest in you having the surgery, your L.A.S.I.K. doctor. You are also not going to get the facts from an industry which guards itself from exposing the truth and ruins some peoples lives in the pursuit of the almighty dollar. Think about it, is anything in this world as great as it is advertised? That juicy hamburger you see on television, is it as good as it looks in the advertisement when you buy it at the restaurant? How about the advertising for customer service, the one that promises you a pleasant experience and delivers you the same endless voicemail and misplaced paperwork that drives you crazy. Is anything as durable or as great or as pleasant or as miraculous as it is advertised? NO! L.A.S.I.K can be filled with the same half-truths, lies and unfulfilled promises as any other advertised product. The problem is L.A.S.I.K is permanent! You can't go back, there are no exchanges and worse there is no complaint department. You could be out of luck and your L.A.S.I.K doctor is thousands of dollars richer. Still thinking about L.A.S.I.K? Educate yourself! Know what your getting into! Don't believe the hype and never trust someone interested in selling you a product! When you have gathered your facts and done your research read the article below. It has some of the most compelling reasons to avoid L.A.S.I.K surgery. Ten Common Sense Reasons Why You Should NOT Have L.A.S.I.K If you still want to go ahead with the procedure you will at least be informed. I only wish I had Been.....
