Eye ops going wrong

[Khandro]

A friend had a lens replacement in the UK (Bristol) last year and was told prior to it, that the chances of it going wrong were "A thousand to one. Well, it went wrong, and he is now blind in one eye. Another friend in Germany (Tübingen) has just had one which has not worked, has no vision in that eye, and has been told that it is "Very unusual" and they are going to have a second go at it. Among my friends and acquaintances, I know probably around ten who have had these operations, which means statistically 20% are failures, this cannot be an accurate figure surely, but it is alarming. Does any one else know of similar cases?
