Previet Andrey,

Our patient advocacy actually received emails and at least one phone
call checking on the legitimacy of Lasik-At-Home. Everyone was
skeptical, but wanted to verify.

Some marketing has attempted to make refractive surgery seem as benign
as getting a haircut, so the idea of do-it-yourself Lasik apparently
was not quite as bizarre as...say...do-it-yourself liposuction might
have been.

I do not know who is behind Lasik-At-Home, but I like his sense of
humor.

It's obvious that that's a joke, but the Home Pet Dentistry Kit is real.

To anyone with a working brain cell it's a joke, but to the retard,
well who knows?
