"Prospective patients
will be interested to know that until recently, I personally wore soft contact lenses

frequently. Many of my patients do the same."

Click on this site for what is
probably the most informative and impartial (though self admittedly rather
negative) account of all the procedures and you will realise why, with
approximately 50 complications ( and no emphasis on resultant structural
weakness varying from 10% to 0ver 30% weakening with danger of rupture
of the eyeball in accidents- e.g.airbags) it is entitled...
I Know Why Refractive Surgeons
Wear Glasses... Briefly -
Whilst it can be
justified for some extreme cases,
after initial
enthusiasm, many eye surgeons have abandoned the laser as tragic, failed
operations result in permanent damage to sight. Many Police forces, Emergency
services, the US Military, and Airlines ban it.
For 24 hr lens
wearers like myself, any advantage is hard to find if lifelong fine
tuning of focus is desirable, especially when reading help becomes increasingly
necessary.
Many (after initially
persuading themselves and others they were happy) now greatly regret it
and worry about the irreversible structural weakness of their eyes in the
event of blows to the eye, car accidents etc.
Rupture of the
eye is uncompromisingly final.
UNIQUE SYSTEM
We were
the first to introduce regular frequent changes of lenses eventually,
leading to its adoption world-wide. FREE
TRIALS FREE
TRIALS and our unique 3 and 4 day throw away system of wear and care together
with our individual approach to lens wear has ended the 'dry eye' complaint
that stops 30% of other practitioners' patients continuing to wear their
lenses. DRY
EYE After
manufacturers spent $millions in developing new lens materials to overcome the
problem, we solved it for everyone no matter what type of lens they wear.
