Step by step LASIK Surgery
The simple step-by-step approach chosen by the editors is very different to the existing titles available in that the necessary basics of laser in situ keratectomy (LASIK) are discussed in detail for the newcomer. Many other excellent books exist for those with experience, yet there is a lack of publications for those just beginning to work with LASIK.
