LASIK Eye Surgery Found to be Safer than Contact Lenses
In October 2006, Dr. Joseph Dello Russo shared the results from a vision safety study that for the first time indicated that LASIK is safer than contact lenses.
According to a study published in the Archives of Ophthalmology, October 2006 edition, researchers have confirmed that LASIK surgeries performed in 2006 were safer than contact lens use. Sight threatening infections from contact lens use occur in 1 in 2,000 contact lens wearers, whereas the study confirms that only one in 10,000 patients risk significant vision loss due to complications from LASIK, making LASIK the safest elective procedure being performed today.
Recently, a large study of more than 32,000 U.S. Armed forces members who had an eye laser surgery found no vision loss greater than two lines in 18,000 procedures performed over ten years.

- "LASIK Benefits USA actually took care of just about everything. The Representative made a daunting experience a breeze. I would not do a thing different and would do it all again! I actually paid less than the quote due to a different recommended procedure with the same results. LASIK Benefits was a major advantage and well worth every penny." --- Suzanne B., Stafford, VA
