Dr. Cynthia and I discuss the unseen risks of LASIK eye surgery, including long-term complications like dry eye, halos, and loss of night vision. She reveals why no one should undergo the procedure and how to maintain healthy vision naturally through prevention, protection, and informed decision-making. Make sure to listen to the full interview to learn more.
