I don't know about that "repair" statement.  I didn't thank that many
would agree a myopic, hyperopic, or astigmatic eye was "broken" and
needed repair.

Also, all refractive surgery, be it conventional excimer laser
ablation or wavefront-guided ablation, induces higher order
aberrations (HOA) overall.  Not on every patient, and sometimes it
even reduces HOA, but not reliably or predictably.

I am not a doctor.

What was the purpose of this post?  Are we now sinking to the level of
using a newspaper article as a scientific reference?

For informational purposes, I have been interviewed a few times and
have actually submitted news articles of my own.  If I run a large
enough ad, I get a free story.
