You either heard rumors or the doctors wor for some shady place because the flap procedure doesn't fully remove the flap from the eye. It is still attached in one spot, they peel it back and then reattach.

I wonder why so long. I have heard waiting till 21 but never till 25. My bro had to wait till he was 21.

The average cost of breast implants in the US is around ~$3,300....so $4,600 is pretty reasonable and I'd imagine a decent price for "good" work.

id like to do it, but if it didnt turn out well then i wouldnt be able to work..need to see the monitors, machines, meds, patients etc.. to do my job..

the laser only procedure just recontours the cornea. it doesnt go into the eye.. i thought the flap surgery was done if u r very near sighted or -6 or higher power.. ive seen where u can get this surgery done with a -10 and -11 power, its the flap and they insert a plastic lens..
