Description

World Premiere
Director Dana Conroy Attending

When Lasik eye surgery destroys a filmmaker’s vision, she decides to make a movie about it. What starts out as an attempt to hang onto her lifelong passion turns into a harrowing investigation into a multibillion industry and the discovery of an underground network of thousands of patients permanently scarred by Lasik, the so-called “safest elective surgery on the market.” Minnesota filmmaker Dana Conroy’s debut feature is an intimate and explosive documentary that demands to be seen.
