Peter. There was a documentary on TV recently about laser eye surgery. If the operation fails, you are screwed. The documentary cited at leaset 10% failure rate. Eyes too myopic or too much astigmatism have halo effects at night and in indoor lighting. The eyes "clock in" at 20/20 on the charts, and are deemed successful by the surgeon. Thus the statistics don't really purvey the true failure rate of the operation.
