jenna,

VISX & AVEI, it may also be that VISX has only one much weaker competitor (BEAM and it is planning to buy it out ???) and AVEI has GDT, BSX, MDT & JNJ as its competitors, although AVEI is kicking MDT & JNJ asses now.

also, how big is the potential market ? how many of us want to get laser surgery to restore our eyesight to normal, versus how many of us need to have bypass surgery which the use of stent is recommended ?
how would be HMO's view in reimbursement of stent vs more conventional procedure ? these are factors to be considered on a longer term basis.

as for Friday, I asked Kevin to kindly check blocks action on AVEI for me, he said blocks are terrible.
