Stronger LASIK Warnings Urged

Wednesday, May 7, 2008

An FDA panel urged medical providers to offer more accurate warnings about the risks of refractive laser eye surgery. What do you think?

Dana Morrell,
Data Entry Specialist
"These warnings are crucial. If they'd told me what I really looked like, I never would have gotten the surgery."

Mark Madden,
Carpeting Installer
"The only name I'd trust in the way of clear and corrected vision is Ben Stein."

Neil Cebulash,
Systems Analyst
"If Americans have been refusing to heed Foreigner's 'Double Vision' warning for the past 30 years, what chance does the FDA have of enforcing informed consent?"
