  • Laser Eye Surgery Survey

    If you have had LASIK, PRK, LASEK, Epi-LASIK, IntraLasik, etc (sorry, not RK, lens implants or other non laser procedures):

    PLEASE complete this survey. Your participation is GREATLY valued!

    Laser Eye Surgery Survey

    What initially prompted this survey was a request by Matt at LasikSurgeryWatch for those of us who run patient websites to consolidate data on laser surgery complications patients. This would then be used by Morris Waxler, a former prominent FDA official (those of you who follow LASIK news may remember seeing him in the news recently) for purposes of communicating concerns to the FDA. For more details, please contact LSW.

    I have never created a database of patients and their complications so I thought this was a really good impetus to get one going that can be shared amongst patient groups in the future working for change in one way or another. While the data will initially be used for LSW's endeavor, the survey will be ongoing and the data will be available for use in future projects that could benefit current & future patients.

    Re: confidentiality: PERSONAL data (name, location, email, etc) will remain under lock and key and will not be shared with any person, organization etc without your explicit consent. Anytime the survey data is shared with others, it will be masked so that no personal details are included.

    Thanks in advance to all of you willing to participate! This will also be posted on D'Eyealogues and in the bulletin.
