anyone got any info on lasik vision institute in houston, texas?

i went there for a pre-op and they had me signing consent forms while
my eyes were dilated.

they said it would be $699 per eye for my lasik. $100 per eye for
plugs and $100 per eye for lifetime assurance.

do u think they really honor their lifetime assurance plan?

You bring up a valid point. I'm going to play devil's advocate on this one from experience and how I've seen them react to this situation before. The Musas...

But it's not something I can really pursue since I have not had the lasik done. I am scheduled to have it done 12/27/03 but after reading all of the bad things...
