Interestong article in this month's issue of HEALTH. I don't know how large the distribution is, but it is an extensive article about Lasik corrections.It mentions Intacts several times, with at least 2 references to their reversibility. The author, or someone he interviewed, had intacts and had them removed because of the halo effect which was said to cause a problem in about 4% of the cases. The author did say, however, that despite having them removed, he was a walking testament to the fact that they are removable and correctable. Overall tone of the article was positive towards Intacts, although KERA was not mentioned.
