A family member is a very exeprienced opthalmologist (not in CA) and if you were interested in finding out information regarding the potential risks of your condition and lasik I’m sure he’d be happy to help. He has nothing to gain by not giving you straight info and he’s a good normal guy (like me) without any hint of arrogance. I could put you in touch with him if you’d like. Of course I’d have to let you into the inner sdr circle but for something like that I’d be happy to.

I really appreciate the offer. i wouldn’t mind being into your inner circle…Thanks..
Concerning lasik though… The truth is I’m half blind in one eye, which cannot be corrected…period…The other eye, I’m nearsighted. So
It’s not that an eye condition itself is preventing me from doing lasik on my other eye. It’s many a risk/return issue I have. The risk is, as low as the probability is for lasik to go bad these days, if I am one of the lucky winners of a bad lasik job, I don’t have the luxury of seeing well enough out of the other eye to do a lot of things I normally take for granted…Like driving…. So, unfortunately, I can’t take that risk of doing lasik on my only good eye. i won’t even stick a contact in my eye, for that reason frankly. Most eye doctors that talk to me about lasik and then find out about my condition quickly talk me out of doing anything…I guess they don’t want the liability either.
