Dwyane Wade Undergoes Lasik Eye Surgery

Wade apparently wasn’t a fan of Amar’e's bespectacled look. FOXSportsFlorida has the report: “Miami Heat guard Dwyane Wade underwent Lasik eye surgery Friday morning in Sunrise, Fla. The seven-time All-Star announced the news at about 1 p.m. Friday afternoon when he wrote on Twitter, ‘Just made my first move of the summer to get better next year..i got lasik on my eyes..thanks to Dr Lessner at Millennium Laser eye center.’ The surgery was a success, according to Dr. Cory Lessner, who has performed more than 25,000 Lasik procedures, including Wade’s. ‘His procedure went like clockwork,’ Lessner said in a statement. ‘We’re extremely honored that Dwyane entrusted us with his precious eyesight.’”

The World's First 3D LASIK AND Tennessee's First 3D Cataract Surgery Performed

The new 3D image-guided, microsurgical technology improves the quality of LASIK and cataract surgeries

FREE 3D upgrade until 9/30/11

NASHVILLE, Tenn., July 1, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Dr. Ming Wang of Wang Vision Cataract & LASIK Center, Nashville, TN, became the first surgeon in the world to perform a 3D LASIK procedure, and the first in Tennessee to perform a 3D cataract surgery. The first such ground-breaking surgeries took place at Wang Vision Cataract & LASIK Center on May 27, 2011 and June 2, 2011, respectively. Both procedures utilized off-label uses of the TrueVision® 3D high-definition, real-time, stereoscopic microsurgical technology.

The world's first 3D LASIK patient was Mr. Farah Jai-Aden, a 28-year-old truck and taxi driver from Atlanta, GA. At his first post-operative visit, he could already see better than he ever had before, even with glasses or contact lenses! The state's first 3D cataract surgery patient was Mr. David Mehosky. Both Mr. Jai-Aden and Mr. Mehosky are very pleased with their new 3D vision!

"We are very excited to be the first in the world to perform the 3D LASIK procedure, and the first in Tennessee to perform a 3D cataract surgery," said Dr. Wang, who is a clinical associate professor of ophthalmology for the University of Tennessee and the director of Wang Vision Cataract & LASIK Center, Nashville, TN.
 
The new 3D image-guided, microsurgical technology represents an innovative improvement for both LASIK and cataract surgeries. Dr. Wang explained, "In standard LASIK and cataract procedures, the surgeon looks through a traditional microscope with the naked eye, so what you see is what you get. There is no image processing or signal enhancement. Therefore, since the eyeball is very small, there is limited resolution and accuracy in these surgical procedures. In contrast, for the new 3D image-guided LASIK and cataract surgeries, the surgeon wears a pair of 3D glasses, and uses a high-definition, microsurgical system which provides a stereoscopic and signal-enhanced view of the entire surgical field. It allows the surgeon to achieve more precision and accuracy with the laser focusing of the eye, and thus improves the quality of LASIK and cataract surgeries, and the visual outcome for our patients."
