Advertisment from the (Portland) Oregonian:

		THE SURGERY PEOPLE CAN'T WAIT TO HAVE

Doctors call it "radial keratotomy" and it corrects nearsightedness.  Those in
Portland who have had it call it one of the best things that has ever happened
to them in their lives.  Radial keratotomy is a safe and painless procedure for active people.  After having it, some no longer need glasses or contacts. Others
use them less.  For the first time in their lives, they can drive, ski, play
tennis, watch movies and work without glasses or contacts.

What's the story here?  Is it worth looking into?
