In the past several years, a number of technological advances have made laser eye surgery more widely available. The procedure uses tiny lasers to alter the surface of the eyeball, significantly improving a patient's vision. In spite of its growing popularity, however, laser eye surgery is a costly procedure. Given the number of problems that may accompany the laser vision correction procedure, it is unlikely that many will choose to undergo the surgery.
The first problem with laser eye surgery is the cost. The process requires sophisticated laser systems, which can cost several million dollars. In order to remain in business, the doctors administering laser eye surgery have to charge patients approximately $1,000 to $2,000 per eye. For many people, this is far too costly.
In addition, there are concerns about post -operative problems, which are issues that may arise after the surgery. There have been reports of the cornea (the lenses at the front of the eye) detaching themselves from the eyes after laser vision correction. Moreover, laser vision correction advertises a quick recovery time, but many patients report taking weeks and sometimes months to heal fully from the surgery.
It also remains unclear how long laser vision correction will last. A number of people have to go back to a doctor just four or five years after their surgery for another procedure. Even worse, others have to receive a second round of surgery just a few months after the initial procedure in order to perfect their vision. For most consumers, the benefit is not worth the risks and costs involved with the procedure.
According to the article, one of the popular methods for eye surgery is using tiny lasers. In this regard, the author counts three problems of using this method. however, the lecturer finds these arguments inaccurate and refutes all three arguments stated by the speaker. He also supports this method by mentioning her knowledge about this method.
Firstly, it is stated in the reading that this approach is expensive a lot. So for most people would not be economical. On the contrary, the lecturer questions this argument mentioning that laser surgery is costly decreasing. He argues that owning to the competition to attract people and the decrease in the cost of the basic equipment, this method is going to be cheaper than the past.
Secondly, the author puts forward the idea that laser surgery has post-operative problems. On the other hand, the speaker disputes this claim mentioning that other approaches also have these similar problems which are really greater.
Thirdly, the passage goes on to mention that this method is useful just for a limited time. nevertheless, the lecturer finds this argument unfair and says that there are some cases that have maintained for about twenty years.
