LASIK (Laser In Situ Keratomileusis) has become such a popular and overhyped procedure that prospective patients need the understandable account of the process that this small book provides. Its three well-trained and experienced authors begin with the anatomy and physiology of the eye and the meanings of those cryptic numbers on a prescription for glasses. After summarizing LASIK’s history, they discuss what conditions make one a good candidate for it and the qualifications a prospective patient should seek in a LASIK surgeon. Those include training, experience, and using eye-tracking and other up-to-date procedures and equipment. Reports from patients who have undergone LASIK can be helpful, they say, but information on the Internet is much less valuable and may be misleading. They describe the operation proper and postoperative processes in detail, look closely at risks and possible complications, and conclude with lists of further informational resources. Clear in both text and illustrations, this patient advisor should be a good circulator. William Beatty
