EYE SURGEONS PRACTICE SPECIALTY Dr. Franklin Lusby and Dr. Amarpreet Brar specialize in refractive surgery. Both surgeons are active in the community, with a special emphasis on educating local eye doctors and surgeons as they develop their refractive surgery techniques. “Being in charge of a portion of the education of doctors is personally rewarding and really keeps you on your toes,” says Dr. Lusby. “NVISION is unique in that we work with the patient’s eye doctor to ensure the best possible surgery and outcome. Many eye doctors not only refer their patients, they have also had the surgery at NVISION themselves, and that’s what makes NVISION ‘the Eye Doctors’ #1 Choice.’” WHAT’S MOST REWARDING ABOUT YOUR WORK? WHAT DOES THE FUTURE HOLD FOR YOUR PRACTICE? “Helping improve a patient’s vision and being a part of improving their quality of life is extremely rewarding. Seeing a patient smile at seeing their loved ones after surgery is priceless.” “Even in a challenging economy, our practice has enjoyed steady growth. We continue to embrace new, proven technology and have excellent outcomes. We are entering a new era of treatment specifically targeted at eliminating reading glasses for the Baby Boomer crowd and cataract surgery for the senior population.” CAREER MILESTONE NVISION LASER EYE CENTERS BECAME THE FIRST PROVIDER IN CALIFORNIA TO OFFER LASIK EYE SURGERY WITH THE SWISSENGINEERED ZIEMER FEMTO LDVD CRYSTAL LINE™ LASER IN 2011, THEREBY PROVIDING THE HIGHEST LEVEL OF LASER VISION CORRECTION AVAILABLE TODAY.
