The FDA should approve the procedure because adults have a right to decide for themselves what risks they are willing to tolerate.

- gknoy 7y agoI think the issue highlighted by this article is that the risks have not been accurately communicated. It's not really been advertised as HAVING side effects, and the doctors most willing to fight for your money are probably the least likely to tell you about them. If commercials for LASIK were like drug commercials ("... side effects include vomiting, migraines, and death..."), we'd likely have a more informed populace.
