Even though LASIK has been around for 20 years in the U.S., one former FDA adviser has said the procedure should be taken off the market.
Dr. Morris Waxler originally voted to approve the eye surgery, but he’s changed his mind.
"Essentially we ignored the data on vision distortions that persisted for years," the retired FDA adviser told CBS News.
"I re-examined the documentation … and I said, 'Wow this is not good,'" he added.

I was hoping to get this done this next year. Now, all of this stuff is surfacing. Here is a response to Dr. Waxler; however, this must have been ongoing because it looks like it's from 2011. Also, the response gets technical and way too technical for me.

Disir gets eye surgery sees world as it really is.........kills herself.
Alternate ending--Disir gets the eye surgery but doesn't kill herself because of being in a percentage that is completely blinded.
