In New Jersey, a medical malpractice case recently concluded in a botched LASIK eye surgery case. The patient was not a good candidate for the surgery because of steep corneas. However, the doctor performed the procedure anyway.
As a result of the surgery, the patient is left with a long term complication that has left him legally blind. The New Jersey Eye Center and the responsible doctor are now settling the case for $2.1 million.
