More than any other car company.  w Ould you take the risk of jumping out of a plane with a Parachute i asked a patient. She had just asked me if she should toss away her eyeglasses and have her vision corrected by lasik surgery. Millions of North americans have had this procedure done and Are Happy with the result. But now the Federal drug administration in the u. S. Wants stronger warnings of complications on patient information material. The problem is that just As some parachutes fail to open there can be devastating surgical complications. Lasik surgery permanently changes the shape of the Cornea the Clear covering at the front of the eyeball. A laser device is used to Cut a Flap in the Cornea leaving a hinge at one end. A computer controlled laser then vaporizes a portion of the tissue underneath the Flap and the Flap is replaced. A Good result is very appealing who prefer Good vision without glasses or Contact lenses but so much has been written about the benefits of lasik surgery that its prudent for prospective patients to be aware of its potential hazards. After surgery the Flap that was Cut in the Cornea and then placed Back in its original position May move causing problems. There is also the possibility of infection any time an incision is made anywhere in the body. This May require intensive treatment and May Lead to temporary loss of vision or even irreversible blindness. And its Well to remember computer controlled laser devices May not always do what they re supposed to do. Some patients suffer Side effects that impair the Quality of their eyesight even if visual acuity is improved. For instance even with Good vision on the Eye Chart some patients do not see As Well in situations of Low Light contrast such As driving at night or in a fog. In one study 41 per cent of patients gained daytime vision but some lost nighttime vision. In another study of Short sighted people who had laser surgery 80 per cent could not see a traffic sign at 15 car lengths and 40 per cent could not see the sign at four car lengths. Its also possible for patients to be under treated or Over treated resulting in less than 20/ 20 vision. In one study 36 per cent of those who had surgery on both eyes still needed glasses. Another report stated that from two to 10 per cent of people still require glasses after lasik surgery. So what does All this mean simply that its Wise for people to follow the old time tested advice Given in roman times caveat emptor let the buyer beware. You must be Well informed before agreeing to lasik surgery. And anyone who tells you there Are no complications is either a liar or a fool. The decision is even More difficult when lasik surgery is being done for convenience rather than necessity and because the great majority of cases end with Good results. Its a terrible Day when loss of vision occurs simply because you wanted to toss away glasses. So you must always be willing to accept some risk when contemplating lasik surgery. Never forget that on rare occasions even a Well packed Parachute fails to open. Lasik surgery is popular not perfect w. Gifford Jones my. The doctor game b _ 05_ oct 01 08.
