Friday November 23, 10:17 PMMOH meets Lasik operators on advertising regulationsSINGAPORE: The Health Ministry held a meeting with Lasik operators on Friday afternoon on advertising regulations after expressing concerns on misleading advertisements.About 25 operators like the Singapore National Eye Centre and Lasik Clinic attended the meeting. Officials from the Ministry's Health Regulations Division went through the regulations that operators should follow when advertising their services. They said the regulations are designed to safeguard against indiscriminate promotions. One doctor said the public should not just look at advertising when choosing their services. Dr Lee Hung Ming, Medical Director of Parkway Eye Centre, said: "The critical factor to consider in considering any Lasik surgery will be, firstly, the surgeon in terms of his experience and his surgical outcome. The second factor will be the technology that he uses. I think the least important of all is the price that he quotes in advertisements." - CNA/so
