FDA And Others To Study Lasik Problems

Image via Wikipedia

After having a conversation about Lasik complications with a co-worker, I thought I'd share this article with you, from the LA Times, Three federal agencies to assess potential Lasik problems. As much as I'd like to get Lasik corrected vision, I'm very reticent to do so. My co-worker has looked into this matter for herself, and she tells me that the 2% complication rate is the best possible scenario. This low rate in part is due to: the usage of the best equipment, and the procedure being performed at the hands of a well-trained practitioner who's completed many thousands of procedures. As for me, even a 2% complication rate is too much risk for me. How about you?

OK, so I'm a holdout. I should have Lasik eye surgery, and get perfect vision. Reading articles like this one, Look closely before you seek 20/20, allows me to rationalize why I shouldn't get it done. Honestly, this is actually a well-written story. Lasik has gotten better over the years, and a very small percentage of folks end up with problems. I especially like the fact that more ophthalmologists are getting Lasik. That tells me that the technology and advancements have finally matured. Don't let me hold you back, think about getting Lasik!
