Review Of Book,
By A Customer
This review is from: LASIK Vision Correction (Paperback)
I found this to be very informative, both on the procedure as well as the doctors. I especially appreciated chapter 5, how to choose a surgeon. There are many surgeons out there who make huge promises - how does one choose?

LASIK Vision Correction by Robert K. Maloney, M.D.,
By A Customer
This review is from: LASIK Vision Correction (Paperback)
Being very nearsighted and hearing all the hype and ads about LASIK I decided to do an indepth investigation on the surgeons and the procedure. This book is extremely informative! I found it very comprehensive in detail about the surgery. I went for consultations at three different Laser Vision places and by far Dr. Maloney and his staff are the most profession, and skilled in this surgery. I had the surgery and see 20/20. I recommend this book and Dr. Maloney to everyone looking for this surgery. I traveled 5000 miles to have the surgery performed and it was well worth it!
