Does lasik or laser eye surgery cause cancer??


Question: i wear glasses and if it does not cause cancer i would like to have laser eye surgery in the future
Answers: there is nothing to prove it or prove the reverse .
Lasik eye surgery is very safe nowadays. My cousin got her dental implants and Lasik surgery in India by a company called Indian Health Guru Consultants. The Price for dental and Lasik surgery is very less in India. She paid 25% of the price she was quoted in America.

Indian Health Guru Consultants is very famous in India They arrange Dental surgery, jaw surgery, Lasik eye surgery, Dental Implants etc for foreign patients in India. I read a lot about them in the Newspapers and magazines- about their patient stories.
They arrange financing for USA, Canadian, UK and other international patients who plan to have surgery abroad for low cost, as dental and eye surgery is not covered by insurance. They also have photos pasted of their International patients. You can checkout their website. There are huge cost savings. As a doctor I personally believe that surgery can be easily handled in India, as the quality of healthcare available In India is simply best in the world. The surgeons are USA/UK trained and facilities are 5 star.

Well, if it caused cancer I doubt anyone would ever get it! ;) I have never heard of cancer being a side effect of eye surgery, and I personally know two people who have had it. One, my boss's wife, said she wished she didn't have it because it ruined her night vision so she has problems driving at night. The other, a friend of mine, LOVES it, especially since he used to wear hideously thick eye glasses.

You'd definitely want to speak to a few doctors about it before jumping in, that way you can get an idea of what to realistically expect.
If it was directly or even indirectly responsible for causing cancer, do you think it would be an approved medical procedure? I think NOT.
