If you are considering improving your vision with LASIK surgery, you may find this list of famous LASIK patients interesting. Read on as Dr. Linda Vu of Linda Vision reveals which of your favorite celebrities and athletes have benefited from laser vision correction.
Tiger Woods
As an athlete whose job depends on his eyesight, Tiger Woods was the perfect candidate for LASIK surgery. Prior to surgery, he could hardly see the other side of the exam room without glasses, according to his LASIK surgeon. Now, he says his vision is fantastic.
Anyone considering LASIK should take Tiger’s advice: “If you’re thinking about LASIK, do your homework. Look for a surgeon with proven experience and a laser center that answers all of your questions and stands behind their results,” he said.
Jimmy Fallon
Late-night talk show host Jimmy Fallon admitted that being nearsighted was a problem for years before he decided to undergo laser vision correction. Not only did he have his vision corrected with LASIK, he also filmed the entire experience for his fans. According to Jimmy, “It worked out great!”
Regis Philbin
Television personality Regis Philbin had a smooth LASIK surgery 10 years ago to improve his vision. He thanked his surgeon, telling her that being able to pick up the paper and read it without glasses made a significant difference when he had to recover from a later bypass surgery.
Kim Kardashian
Kim Kardashian is another celebrity that opted to have her procedure filmed; it later aired on an episode of “Keeping Up with the Kardashians.” Although patients are typically advised to take it easy for a day or two after surgery, Kim flew to Las Vegas shortly after her procedure to perform in a cabaret show!
Troy Aikman
NFL Hall of Famer Troy Aikman started wearing contacts at the age of 14, and chose to undergo LASIK to eliminate the inconvenience of the visual aids. He said his vision went from 20/600 to 20/20. “This procedure definitely has the wow factor,” Troy said. “The thing I like best is being able to watch TV at night and fall asleep on the couch and know that I won’t have contacts stuck to my eyes.”
