Just a simple question. Would people really have ever become aware of the
creation and development of refractive eye surgery in Colombia, South
America. Honestly, though US eye docs actually hop on a plane for
Colombia when it comes to their own eyes, yet how often is this knowledge
shared with patients. Not often. I know an eye surgeon that markets and
performs RK, but sends his family abroad for surgery.
As far as "quick money for my Colombian buddies" One cannot imagine the
level of professional success enjoyed by Dr. Galvis. He has no need for
patients from the US or anywhere else in the world. I get a tremendous
feeling of satisfaction in sharing the patient reactions to their new
vision. Is it not somewhat enlightening to learn about things taking
place in other countries be it not war.

Is the US "The center of the universe"?
