Maxwell is a good guy.

Dr. Salz is a pretty big name in ophthalmology. I think you'll be in good hands.

I am the practice adminstrator for Dr. Shugar. He is a top notch Eye Surgeon! If your considering lasik and live anywhere near Tallahassee Florida you should make the trip out to Perry and see him.

We have people from all over the world come to see him for lasik and other eye issues...

We are not the least expensive option but who wants a cheap surgical procedure anyway! Our equipment is the VISX s-3 laser with all the latest upgrades etc. Wavefront lasik is also available.

We offer discounts to skydivers--the Dr. and I have been jumping for years and he has done the eyes of hundreds of jumpers from all over the world. But I think he could be convinced to offer the same deal to my freinds at S2ki...

Any questions feel free to give a call 800-870-6001. Ask to speak with Maryann--she is our patient education counselor.

Or drop me a note...

Later,

Scott

My boss had it done about 3 yrs ago. He still has major problems with one eye. I don't think I'll have it done for a while yet. When the proceedure is older that what I've got left in my anticipated lifespan I might try it.

lasik your scaring the hell out of me im probably having the procedure done within a matter of weeks. I had a friend whose mom lost vision in her left eye from having the procedure done, but she had it done in mexico because it was really cheap. I think im still gonna go for the procedure though. I have a question for anyone whose had it done. What kind of recovery time is required after the procedure is done?. I wont have to walk around with those dark lenses you have to wear after you get your pupils dialated will I?...Thanks

So if you have dry eyes you can't have the surgery?

This isn't the place to get an answer to that question. Go see an Ophthalmologyst....
