WIth many people talking about PED's where is the uproar about Lasik?
People have focused solely on the HgH and Steroids as a "Performance Enhancer" but you never hear people talk about players getting Lasik eye surgery with nearly perfect vision to begin with to enhace their eye sight and swear by it. This is a "performance enhancer" is it not?

I agree - you really can't be serious about this.
But just in case, here's a couple of reasons why it doesn't make sense.
1. As mentioned earlier, Lasik is actually legal.
2. Lasik is a surgical procedure meant to correct an imperfection. It would be no different than someone with bad knees having them scoped, or a player getting "tommy John" surgery.
3. What Lasik does can also be done with corrective eyewear. What HGH or steroids do can not be duplicated in a different fashion.
4. How would you enforce such a ban? Make players get their eyesight tested and suspend those with really good eyesight? That might work, except that the easiest thing in the world to fake would be bad eyes. Just miss a couple letters, and you're all set.
5. For that matter, why not ban any kind of eye correction? No glasses, no contacts. If God had meant for you to hit a baseball, he would have given you perfect vision.
If you are going to ban Lasik, you may as well ban any other surgical procedure that allows a player to play. Broken leg? Sorry - no surgery for you. Busted appendix? Too bad - can't play anymore.
Sorry - just doesn't make much sense.

i suppose you also want to ban people wearing sun glasses or eye black
Lasik surgery is not performnance enhancing it doesn't make your eyes bigger
and hopefully you don't slam into a car because you didnt see it

The day its listed as a federal crime and you can get jail time for having it done I'll agree with you.
