LIVE CARVING: ICE SCULPTURE + LASEK SURGERY! December 19th
www.ParkAvenueLaser.com is sponsoring a Special Holiday Event on December 19th from 4pm-6:30pm:
Come watch a LIVE ICE SCULPTURE CARVING and a LIVE LASER VISION CORRECTION SURGERY!
We are lasering Shintaro Okamoto, who comes from a family famous in Japan for ice carving–his father won an OFFICIAL SILVER OLYMPIC MEDAL at the Nagano, Japan Olympic games for Ice Carving (yes, this is one of the “ancillary” olympic sport medals)!
I met Shintaro at a benefit we did for 9/11, where we donated a laser vision correction surgery, and raised $4,000 (visit:
http://www.parkavenuelaser.com/newsletter/PALNewsletter091508.html).
If you are involved with any worthy charity, please email us as we donate 1 laser surgery per month, and have raised $100,000 for various charities in this way!:)
Shintaro and his father carved an ice sculpture for my dog, Hershey, for his 8th birthday party in August! We actually had a block party, and the carving was incredible and drew a huge crowd! The dogs were licking it for cool drinking water!
Please visit www.OkamotoStudioNYC.com for some samples of his work! If you know anyone who would like to contact him about his services, you can email him at: shintaro@okamotostudionyc.com
Anyway, after he and his dad do the LIVE ICE SCULPTURE CARVING with a CHAIN SAW right in front of our office (in our glass atrium/entranceway), we are going to bring Shintaro into my laser suite, and I am going to CARVE HIS EYES!:)
Well, really, since I am now ONLY performing the MORE ADVANCED, NO-CUT, NO-FLAP, ALL-LASER LASEK and EPI-LASEK procedures (I stopped performing the older, cutting LASIK procedure in 2003), I will not actually be doing any cutting…
Instead, our VISX S4 IR laser, the most advanced laser in the world, will gently reshape Shintaro’s eyes with a COOL BEAM OF ULTRAVIOLET LIGHT, and PUT HIS EYEGLASS PRESCRIPTION ONTO HIS EYEBALL, so he will never have to need glasses again!
The REASON we have MONTHLY LIVE SEMINARS is to introduce the public to our NEWER SAFER NONCUTTING LASEK procedure, as everyone by now is familiar with the older “flap-and-zap” LASIK procedure (which I had myself, way back in 1999–I was actually the 1st LASIK surgeon in NYC to have it himself).
So, if you always wanted to get rid of your glasses and contacts, but were hesitant to get your eyes cut, now is your opportunity–to see BETTER than with your glasses or contacts with CustomVue WaveFront (visit www.PersonalBestVision.com)
At our seminars, you attend a 1-hour Q+A session with a dozen patients and 3 MDs–so you can feel comfortable in a group setting, with no “sales pressure.”
You will also have your eyes tested and measured to make sure you are a good candidate. You will also meet with other patients who have had the surgery, to ask them your questions directly!
You will then watch a live procedure, either from the OR itself, or if you are more squeemish, from our waiting area on closed circuit monitor, a HD TV directly connected to our laser, so you see the “surgeon’s view!”
You will also receive a complimentary refreshments, a Gift Bag, and enter in a drawing for a discount off Laser Vision Correction!

Hope you can attend this exciting and interesting event!
