| But Web sites devoted to tales of LASIK mistakes and the closing of 24
Lasik Vision centers in the United States including a few in San
Francisco and Sacramento and Canada suggest the need for
buyer-beware caution. |
| Lasik Vision and Icon were known for many things, including having the
cheapest price. One thing they were NOT known for was the very
highest quality of care. You get what you pay for. |
| People have done more research and people are listening to
word-of-mouth. They want to make sure someone has got a good result
because most everyone knows someone who has had Lasik, Bindi said. |

Hi. I have am scheduled for a consultation this Friday with Dr. Belin
at TLC in Albany, NY-he is the best in the area but he charges $4000.
So I also schedule an exam and the surgery with Dr. Mark Cohen at
Lasik MD for the following Friday-his resume looks excellent and they
use the B&L Technolas-but now Ive started reading about Lasik Vision
and their lawsuits and Lasik MD used to be Lasik Vision and I am now
worried. Any advice is desperately needed!! I need a good surgeon but
less expensive than $4000! Any referrals in Upstate NY area up to
Montreal would be very appreciated. Thanks.
