Put LASIK in the "enter your query" search engine,
and you'll get about 300 articles from the American Society of Cataract
and Refractive Surgery.
Even tho it says for members only, the public has access to articles.
These articles are written for the Medical Profession,
but gives one an understanding of complications, interesting cases, financial
aspects for the doctor, etc.
Very interesting, tho may be too technical for the public.

Barnet Dulaney Perkins Eye Center
Where Teresa had her Lasik done. Excellent service.
Dulaney is a Mayo graduate, which is about the best training any physician
can receive,
as my deceased husband was a graduate from this world-famous medical training
instituation.
It is believed that Dr. Dulaney has more experience than anyone in the
USA.
And he's nice, polite, helpful, fast, and concerned.
Located in Phoenix, Arizona.
