Letters to LasikDisaster
LasikDisaster.com publishes letters from people who write in. Many of these are patients who have something they want the public to know, but aren't tech saavy, or otherwise can't afford to hire a web designer to create an attractive site for them. Some are patients who are currently involved in litigation and want to say something without their identity becoming publically known. Some are patients who are so visually damaged they feel they have to warn the public because their own conscience compels them to do so. Others are doctors who can't speak out because of fear of professional retaliation. If you have something you would like published, please write to us.
