Make tons of money, ignore bad outcomes, gaslight the injured, and just keep pretending everything is fine while you continue selling dangerous products and services. Just another day in the medical biz. (No, not everyone in the biz, but often enough to use caution and to do your own research BEFORE you subject yourself to a procedure or pharmaceutical).
Even when bad outcomes ARE actually rare, it's worth remembering: Even rare outcomes happen to actual people, and when it happens to YOU, it happens 100%.

The suicide of a 26-year-old Pennsylvania police officer over the after-effects of the popular eye surgery LASIK was not an isolated incident, with others saying it left them with agonizing and life changing symptoms, patients and doctors told The Post.
LASIK providers say the procedure is 95% to 99% safe, but one LASIK survivor said she had suicidal ideations for two years after her “disastrous” surgery in 2000.
She also claimed to know of at least 40 people to have taken their own lives because they couldn’t take constant pain and vision problems, developed after the procedure.

I’ve worn glasses since 3rd grade tough year, when LASIK came out I was right on, at 70 still wear glasses due to what I read
I have been blessed with good vision. When I did my first flight medical I read the bottom line of the chart, like the Doc said to. "Chart manufactured by....". Doc thought I cheated and was talking the piss. Kek. Made me leave the room, got a new chart I couldn't have seen, made me read it from the down the hall. Then he got out a calculator. Kek, He said my vision was about 20:7, better than 20:10.
He said when I got older I would probably need reading glasses. He was right.
Edit: He was a funny guy, asked if I could see his underwear thru his pants.
I'm 74 AND STILL WON'T GET THE SURGERY!!!!!!!! I'd rather wear glasses and keep my vision for the thangs I like too do...bicycling & target shooting (1000 yrs)!!!!!!!
