Abstract:
As we stand at the threshold of a new millennium, perhaps nowhere else in the field of ophthalmology is there such a feeling of excitement, enthusiasm, and anticipation as in the subspecialty of refractive surgery. What was once considered an experimental hobby, dabbled in by a few rogue physicians, has now gained a level of respect among patients and ophthalmologists that has surprised even its most vocal critics.
