LASIK surgery video!

by pm_pm, Oct 03, 2007 02:23PM
For anybody who would like to see what actually happens during LASIK surgery here is a youtube video:  

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O4kDC4sZ5Jg

Warning, not for the faint hearted!

Note how the flap gets all wrinkled towards the end once the eye-lid restraints are removed, and the surgeon has to go in and re-smooth it.

I am sorry, but if I had any doubts about not doing LASIK then after watching this video they are all gone! My glasses will do just fine, thank you.

Hello pm_pm.  Then never plan on having children because it's a bloody mess to watch also.
