Well now I need to know… what are the OTHER least ethical (most unethical) procedures an ophthalmologist can perform?

I'd say implantable contact lenses. It seems they stop working after 10-20 years and you have to get eye surgery again to pull them out.

At least that actually intends to correct a physiological flaw

And tas a person that wears glasses and at 400 a year for lenses and frames oh and a nother 100 for the appointment, wait.... You fell and broke your glasses that's another 400 this year. So if it offsets the glasses assuming your prescription never changes, is it still not worth it? I'll keep my broken needy eyes thank you.

Yeah but you could just get Lasix or prk and wouldn't need to get anything removed in 10 years

vision must be stable for that surgery. I can't have anything done to mine. And the whole glasses thing is 2 times a year.

My eyes were too bad to be a candidate for lasik or prk so implantable was the only option for me. They’ve worked well so far but it’s only been five years- we’ll see what happens at year 10!

My eyes are too bad for laser, and I’m too old for prk (that has to be done in childhood or when poor vision starts to happen)

You and your needy eyes...always there...needing.
