"I'm sorry, but the fact is that surgeons love to cut, and I've read and heard many docs say how they love to do LASIK, how fun it is. It certainly beats being a simple pedal-pusher, which an optometrist could do, and can currently do in Oklahoma as I understand it."

Jim, I would love to do just PRK because it is a lot easier for me, but again, patients are coming in asking for LASIK...Jim, you are showing your ignorance...pedal-pusher? PRK creates a central defect that needs to be managed...do your homework...In Oklahoma, a Yag-capsulotomy can be done by an OD, not PRK and not any other laser procedure...
