Kathy Griffin losing sight in one eye?
Geraldo had her on for the final segment of his Fox News show last night. Seems that the spunky actress/comedian had Lasik surgery multiple times and fell prey to “epithelial ingrowth,” which means that a bunch of little cells are growing underneath the “Lasik flap,” causing her to gradually lose sight in her right eye. Now she’s shouting from the mountaintop that this could happen to you. Actually it happens to fewer than 1 per cent of the Lasik patients. (All that is in the giant disclaimers that all Lasik patients, including Griffin, signed, but she’s cautioning prospective patients to read carefully before they decide.) Read the gory details here and, for an array of photographs of what can happen, click here. (Note: The page of images is not for the squeamish!)
