Wayne- Hey, thanks for any help. I have a nest of epitheral sp? cells growing where my cornea flap was cut for my lasik operation. The concern with my doctor is that he has never lifted a flap more than 2 years after it was cut, mine has been 6.5 years and there is uncertainty if it can be lfted with a scalpel. These cells MUST be removed. The other option is to recut my flap with 1.8 million laser ablated dots all on a circular pattern and on a convex shape. This flap will then be removed by tearing the corndea dot to dot. The cells will then be simply sponged out. The 2nd opinion is my call because its my eye! I am of course aprehensive about this but have total faith in my doctors God given talents he will use on me. Stan
