Inights galore! by Paul Robeson (Langly, Va Turtle Island) 5 Stars
November 04, 2006
My Aunt just had her eyes done at Long Island Eye Care... her descision was totally influenced by reading this and two other books on eye surgeries. She ended up avoiding Lasik and going with Mike Sable, a master. No scaring or pain, on visible anything 24 hours after the procedure...no dry eye... go to the Jordan of Surgery in your area if you are messing with your eyes. Cut no corners and read and study to inform this most crittical of descisions.

Exactly What I Needed! by David Welborn (Durant, OK) 5 Stars
September 12, 2006
This book gave me all the information that I needed in order to make an educated decision regarding which refractive surgery was right for me. It is written in terms that a regular person can comprehend, which in turn, enabled me to communicate with my own physician more clearly. I highly recommend this book if you are considering refractive surgery of any kind. You'll be glad you did!
