The Internet abounds with all sorts of information on keratotomy, but unless you can be reasonably sure of its source and accuracy, be wary. For example, information about keratotomy posted in Internet newsgroups can be flawed. Even if the keratotomy document contains great technical detail, there is often no hard evidence to back up the claims. Don't make the mistake of accepting gossip as truth, which may prove to be professionally and financially embarrassing.
While embarrassment is rarely fatal, more serious consequences can result from following keratotomy advice posted in newsgroups or on websites. While someone may be well-meaning in offering the information, can you trust it? Is this person a keratotomy consumer who has actually purchased and used the products or are they just an opinionated individual? Or are they a competitor?
