Lasik surgery is the worst known refractive procedure that can ruin one's only virgin cornea by making it irregular creating a life long flap that never heals and guarantees every patient a life of "dry eye syndrome," no longer able to wear contacts and glasses, and other visual disturbances...

IF YOU ARE ONE OF THE MANY THAT HAVE POST LASIK PROBLEMS OR LOOKING FOR THE BEST SHOT AT LASIK/PRK/LASEK, 
THIS MAY BE OF HELP AND OF HOPE FOR YOU IN GETTING THE BEST KNOWN RESULTS:

(COMING OUT JUNE 2007 AND BEING TESTED FOR 3 MONTHS)

It's still too early to know for sure, but from what I've read and discussed with the Doctors I think there's a new re-treatment approach that may be much more reliable than any other.  Basically it involves a trans-epithelial treatment (a PRK where the laser removes the epithelium) where the laser removes the epithelium as well as the stroma.  Unlike older techniques, the algorithm adjusts for the energy loss in the periphery (supposedly).  This is the only approach I've seen that makes sense that could actually fix lots of bumps and valleys.  I'm sure it wouldn't be perfect, but it also goes wider than other treatments.  It can handle a 7mm central treatment zone and up to a maximum 10mm total, peripherial blend zone. 

The laser is the iVis (I think by Ligi- an Italian co., but I'm not sure).  Supposedly it has very good registration and very high resolution (it uses a topographic approach, not wavefront and is based on 39,000 samples instead of only 50 to 500 used for different wavefront devices- the Alcon is just over 200 for instance) and leaves the "smoothest treatment" area yet achieved.  Anyway, if you know anyone considering a retreatment have them hold off for this if they have the money for it.  The only one in the US I know of who will be doing this is in Nashville (and I'm not sure when).  One doctor in Norway just started using it and doesn't have actual results yet.  More information on the laser can be found at:

-Potential Post Lasik Help-

Welcome. Our purpose is to help individuals with normal vision understand the visual aberrations that accompany eye injury, various eye diseases and conditions (e.g. Floaters, Keratoconus, and Visual Snow), and the complications of refractive surgery (i.e., LASIK, LASEK, PRK).  While there is no substitute for actually looking through the eyes of another person, you are welcome to use this site to help you communicate your situation to your family, friends, or your doctor. Use of images in a forensic (legal) setting, however, requires explicit written permission.
