More YAHOO info: great press first time here but i couldn't resist. there was a VERY GOOD segment on one of the local Seattle evening stations about Intacs. i couldn't believe it. they interviewed a woman before her procedure and asked why she was doing it and what she was afraid of. she had gone to her doctor wanting laser surgery but he said no, wait. intacs is a better procedure and it's reversible in the event that it doesn't work for you. she was worried about the halo effect but was still going ahead with it. then they showed the actual procedure. were interviewing her during the surgery even. no real discomfort - said the worst part was the eye drops. then back with her two weeks later. absolutely thrilled with her procedure and the results. she had nothing but positive comments to say about it. she is freed from glasses and contacts! no halo effect or any of the other minor things that might have happened. forgot one thing - the doc had also stresses that in addition to the reversability of the procedure she can also UPGRADE as new and better procedures and technologies develop.
