[edit] Merge header: Bogota Laser Refractive Institute into Gustavo Tamayo

Gustavo Tamayo is somewhat notable, but his surgical center (i.e. Bogota Laser Refractive Institute) is not. It is only incidental that Extreme Makeover ("Cambio Extremo: 2") was filmed there because that is where Tamayo practices. I suggest merging Bogota Laser Refractive Institute into Gustavo Tamayo. -AED 20:42, 4 October 2006 (UTC)

Merge as suggested. EyeMD 17:25, 6 October 2006 (UTC)

I talk from personal experience by saying this surgical institute is important. I live in Bogota, Colombia and this center is in fact the latest in technology and the only center with direct represantation of AMO/VISX. Bogota Laser Refractive Institute is the major eye surgery center in Latin America and is among the top 5 of the world. This is because Gustavo Tamayo is the scientific director for AMO/VISX and therefore has knowledge and technological superiority to other centers. As well BLRI is the only center in Colombia that can treat through refactive surgery presviopia through Gustavo Tamayo's technique.
