Patient flies from Europe to Jacksonville for reversal of sun induced eye damage

Golfers at risk for this malady

 

Spring is here and it’s time once again for the world’s most popular golf event to unfold in the beautiful North Florida sunshine! Beginning May 7th, the PLAYERS Championship (TPC) at Sawgrass in Ponte Vedra Beach will draw golfers from around the globe.  

 

And, while they are widely touted and enjoyed by many, golf is also one of the many outdoor activities that can increase the risk of sun-related scarring or lesions in the eyes called Pterygium (an unsightly raised, wedge-shaped growth across the cornea that, left untreated, continues to grow and may eventually adversely affect vision). 

 

A revolutionary new advanced procedure has been developed that permanently eliminates the scarring. Using Diamond surgical instruments and glue rather than stitches, the new procedure also utilizes a new generation, specially processed, stem cells of a human placenta which adheres to the eye and promotes the healing process.

This surgery was further elevated for the First Time in the World recently when Dr. Gulani added 3D technology to this Art. This technology allows greater detail for the surgeon and faster cosmetic improvement in appearance and has provided new hope for long-time sufferers of this sun-related and sometimes genetically predisposed eye condition.

 

Pro Golfers like Donnie Hammond and Kenny Knox as well as many an aspiring local golfer have undergone this advanced surgery and are back on the greens with added vengeance.

“The redness and cloudiness are gone!” declared Louis Ballantyne who had this surgery, “I play golf as a hobby, and I can now track my golf ball 100 yards. My perpetually red eye brought constant comments such as “What’s wrong with your eye?”  “Now, we talk about the game, not my eye,” he said, grinning.

Local Golfer and noted Oral surgeon, Dr. John Zongker, became one of the first in the world to undergo this surgery on a 3D IMAX like screen. “My healing has been amazing!” said Dr. Zongker, my eye looked great the next day and soon I was back to work.

 

“In my eyes Dr. Gulani is number one!” says past Commissioner for Golf, Dean Beman. “Excellent vision is essential to gain an upper hand on your opponent during the exacting game of golf,” said Gulani.  “And just the basic communication through eye contact improves immensely once the eye is no longer red, irritated and tearing.”

 

This is a Miracle” said Svetlana as she saw her eye. “It was worth my trip all the way from Europe”.

With patients from all over the world flying to Jacksonville for this futuristic surgery, Dr. Gulani has been teaching this new super-specialty to eye surgeons worldwide.  “It’s time to take the red out of eyes all over the world,” said Gulani.

 

Svetlana will be available for interview before she leaves for Europe. She shall be seen today in postop.
