Pastimes : LASIK corrective eye surgery -- Ignore unavailable to you. Want to Upgrade?

FWIW to anyone considering a procedure with Lasik-Vision (now merged with Icon?): I requested a return of my $699 deposit on 12/18/00. I have yet to receive it after several efforts. An employee at Lasik admitted that people who had requested deposit returns last October had not received their refunds. I'm now planning to contact the NY State Office for Consumer Protection to file a complaint. Please understand that I don't have a position in this company or Icon. I have friends who have had the procedure. I'm just pissed at their lack of a response and want to alert others who are contemplating a procedure with them that there are problems getting your money back if you back out. I suggest that anyone else who has experienced this contact the appropriate offices in their state. Steve Tauscher
