But for patient protection, isn't that important? I mean, I would think if I had an implant of some kind--well, actually I do have lens implants--that we should be able to--that is why I can see you, I had both lenses implanted--and I think if there were a recall on that, I would like to know what the problem is and my doctor or his clinic be able to identify that and to let me know. We should be able to do that for patients.
