Edited Research Question

Problem Statement: How accurate risks of surgeries shown by LASIK and how effectively are they conveyed?

We thought that it would be good to research on the dangers of Lasik as not many people know the procedure well since the information provided by LASIK might be limited or inaccurate as they would want to cloud some of the information as not to scare of their patients. We would also need to find out how strongly does LASIK enforce their patients awareness and knowledge in what they themselves are going through and the risks they are taking.

What we intend to do:

We intend to find out about how the Lasik treatment will affect the person’s eyes and even health and compare it with the information provided by LASIK, hence, changing the information in their advertisements or brochures, which are supposed to educate the public, so that the patients have a clearer view of what they are going through. We would also need to find out how knowledgable patients really are when they accept these surgeries so as to know LASIK's enforcement on the patients' awareness.

Research Question

1. Reflection
   -- How did the group come up with the problem statement?
   -- What did you do well? e.g. difficulties faced and were overcome, how you overcome them
   -- What did you not do well? e.g. difficulties that have yet to overcome due to some barriers
   -- What you intend to do?

Problem Statement: What are the risks of lasik?

We thought that it would be good to research on the dangers of Lasik as not many people know the procedure well.

We had problems trying to create the mindmap as it needed a lot of details thus we just had to split the work up. However, we were able to collate everything and the mindmap was understandable.

We think our group had a hazy out view of the whole project because there are plenty of risks involved in Lasik.

We intend to find out about how the Lasik treatment will affect the person’s eyes and even health and whether a Lasik procedure is worth it, both to the person’s well-being and money.
