Dr. Emil Chynn is unprofessional and inappropriate. He seems to be a decent surgeon, but DON'T QUESTION HIM in any way or he'll become nasty and threaten to discharge you from his practice! He also yells at and demeans his staff in front of patients!
all of this is true i witnessed it first hand. He refused to refund a $6000 charge to my credit card after i cancelled the procedure the same day scheduled it. luckily my mastercard got my refund back. BUYER BEWARE
He doesn't appear to create an epithelial flap while performing lasek? I thought a flap was created? I've seen another lasek video where they actually created the flap and didn't completely remove it?
CONCLUSIONS: The human comeal stroma typically heals after LASIK in a limited and incomplete fashion; this results in a weak, central and paracentral hypocellular primitive stromal scar that averages 2.4% as strong as normal comeal stroma.
Only 2.4% of the original corneal strength. Consider the fact that you will need your corneas for the rest of your life if you want to see. Is refractive surgery worth what it does to the eye?

YouTube: FDA LASIK and watch and listen to the estimated 600,000 ruined lives!!!
LASIK is finally all over the news and showed to be causing great concern. Google: LASIK FDA, LASIK SUICIDES, LifeAfterLasik, Lasik-Flap. The 95% success rate is bogus. We spoke in front of the FDA Panel this week telling them that there are about 10,000 hurt LASIK patients, not the reported 140 complaints they are stating. Anyway. Google: Brian Williams LASIK FDA NBC, LASIK CBS, LASIK ABC, LASIK CBC.
The best decision you could make is to NOT have LASIK, and never mess with a healthy cornea. Look into OrthoK or PRK if you have refractive surgery. Definitely google: lasik suicides, lasik dry eye, lifeafterlasik, and lasik-flap.
The INFORMED CONSENT FORM protects the Lying Lasik Doctors from being sued while HURTING the patients these doctors swore to protect when they swore the HIPPOCRATIC OATH "to do NO harm" which they all have forgotten about. Lasik is so dangerous and so many patients are unhappy, that the FDA called for an emergency Panel Discussion taking place on April 24th and 25th, 2008. Google: FDA Panel Lasik Discussion Maryland and you will see what is going on. Patients are suicidal...Need I say more?
This is the second video I've seen of Dr. Chynn performing this surgery...and in both cases, it seems the epithelium flap is completely removed [as in PRK?] I was hoping to get Dr. Chynn to perform a lasek procedure where the flap is preserved and reapplied over the eye. Could you clarify what happened in your procedure? Perhaps the video is just not clear.
The entire epithelium is removed as far as I know. The flap procedure is LASEK, as opposed to LASIK. LASEK involves blades and flap of cornea, LASEK requires dissolution of epithelium and thus longer healing time til it grows back.
Go for a free consult--he'll explain it all. I know peeps who are very happy with both procedures.
Ari, How are your eyes? I'm going to have the Lasek done also, my corneas are just a little too thin for the lasik. So, let me know how you are doing after 4-5 days but luckily my Dr. does the lasek also. Thanks, Greg
Eyes are good so far...I got "monovision" so only one eye was corrected. My brain hasn't learned to completely give over to the dominant eye for distance but its getting better. Corrected eye seems 20/20 if not better.

@arifliakos, actually if the epithelium is not replaced it is PRK not LASEK
