    LASIK Doctor referal

    Ask your regular optometrist for a referral. It will be cheaper that way for you. The optometrist will do the pre-screening and maybe some followup, the lasik doctor will do your surgery. If you go straight to the lasik guy they charge you premium rates for screening and followup. I've...
