Swan Cheng’s Epi-LASEK Surgery at Park Avenue Laser Vision
I am one of those people who started wearing glasses and contact lenses by the time I was 13 years old. People with high myopia can sympathize with me because I could only see hand motion without contact lenses or glasses. I have been thinking about the procedure since 2001. Every time when I heard that a relative or friend had LASIK, I would research about the procedure. But I was a “scaredy cat” and afraid of getting my cornea cut. After years of struggling with contact lenses, I had the epi-LASEK procedure performed on my eyes by Dr. Emil Chynn on April 30, 2008. I finally took the plunge based on the thoroughness of Dr. Chynn’s evaluations after years of indecisiveness. I was very impressed by Dr. Chynn’s credentials. He is a Columbia and Harvard-trained physician who also elected to further his formal education with a one-year refractive surgery and corneal fellowship at Emory University, where he studied under Dr. George Warning MD, one of the world’s leading authorities on refractive surgery.
Now, I can finally see the way I used to see as a young child. Having my vision permanently corrected has been one of the best things I’ve ever done for myself! From waking up in the morning and being able to se the clock, to driving, watching television, even putting on make-up! Being able to see clearly with out wearing glasses is truly amazing! Seeing is believing! Dr. Chynn — Thank you for making this incredible difference in my life!! You have my deepest gratitude. To anyone who is myopic and considering laser vision correction, I would highly recommend Park Avenue Laser Vision. At Park Avenue Laser Vision, you are always assured of the best equipment, the highest standards of quality control and excellent physicians, which optimizes your chances for an excellent result.

I had my Epi-LASEK surgery done at Park Avenue Laser Vision (www.parkavenuelaser.com) to correct my Rx of OS -3.25 and OD -3.75. This POV is not the DVD Dr. Chynn provides you of your surgery from the camera attached to the laser. My DVD was accidentally ejected by one of the receptionists without it being finalized, meaning blank disc…I’m actually glad my wife was with me in the O.R. recording everything with our camcorder…from being prepped for surgery, everything in between, to the end. I like this better actually!!
