Lasik surgery is a highly profitable and consequently aggressively advertized medical procedure.  Before you undergo Lasik surgery get all of the facts including the likelihood that you will develop Starbursts, halos, multiple images, night vision difficulty, or severe dry eyes.  In a current case in which I am involved the surgeon used the wrong prescription on both of the patient’s eyes.  In addition to having worse vision as a result of the operation after multiple surgeries she had many of these complications listed above.  The defendant’s expert says these are all known risks and complications of the procedure.  For a great web site with more information see http://www.lasikcomplications.com/index.htm
