A Student Looks at Two Websites on Lasik Surgery (laser surgery) :: Sell Websites Buy Web Sites

A Student Looks at Two Websites on Lasik Surgery (laser surgery) Today there are so many choices in life and a person who wears glasses or contacts might decide to eliminate the need for such medical devices. Lasik (Laser assisted in situ keratomileusis), the most commonly performed type of laser surgery, is an effective treatment that can correct many vision problems by reshaping the cornea. Life without glasses or contact lenses would be easier and more enjoyable for any human being. But can a person’s vision get worse after the procedure? To be free from doubts and questions most people can turn to the Internet to search for needed information. The Internet is growing and is one of the most effective ways for businesses to advertise their products and services to customers. Everywhere one turns it is .com, .gov, .edu, .org, there are many choices. Web sites offer information on topics but they all have limits. Most Web pages on the Lasik topic are directed to the doctor’s office and there are thousands of these advertising sites. One site offers video information from doctors and other professionals. Another home page offers information and personal questions to ask the doctors. It’s very obvious that one Web page alone does not have enough information for the researcher. Two good sites that offer wonderful information on Lasik are www.fda.gov/cdrh/lasik/, www.lasikinstitute.org/. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration through the Department of Health and Human Services has a very informative page www.fda.gov/cdrh/lasik/. Many different links on this page can give a person easy ways to access and understand unbiased information. The first impression about this Web site is the co-ordinate between the title, the links, the graphics and the colors that are used. The title is big enough to get people’s attention and direct them to what they are looking for, not like some web sites which do not have well-balanced compositions. There are no bloated graphics on this site or scaling image problems. The text is not dense but well written with readable font size. The terms used are simple and professional with a provided glossary. An obvious distinction of this site from others is it seems to be very truthful when it shows all the risks that people could face after the surgery. Examples are losing vision, developing debilitating visual symptoms, and patients being under or over treated.
