Surgeon, Emil W. Chynn, M.D. worked as a volunteer surgeon for 2 months at Aravind Eye
Hospital in India while a resident. A patient who was, for all intents and purposes “blind,” saw
his grandchildren for the very first time because of the cataract surgery Dr. Chynn performed on
him. He’s got a special affinity for India because of this experience.
Today. Dr. Chynn is the best-trained and most-experienced LASEK surgeon in New York City,
with a medical degree from Columbia University, ophthalmology residency from Harvard, and
over 18,000 procedures performed. At 5:30 pm August 4th, he will be demonstrating the
newest Bladeless, all-laser, no-cut LASEK procedure on a real patient at his Park Avenue
Offices! We invite you to watch as he performs this procedure using VISX Star S4 Laser, with
Iris Registration and advanced CustomVue WaveFront technology; As opposed to LASIK (with
and I), LASEK (with an E) is non-invasive, and does not involve cutting a flap in the cornea.
This has been proven to be safer for the patient, as it eliminates all flap related side effects
associated with LVC, to include: night glare, light halos, dry eyes, post operative flap trauma,
etc.To learn more, go to www.parkavenuelasek.com.
Roman Iospa will introduce groundbreaking glaucoma testing at 6 pm that eliminates the “ick” factor.
BiCOM's main product lines includes a unique Diaton tonometer which allows eye care and
medical professionals to measure intraocular pressure (IOP) for glaucoma Through the EYELID,
without anesthesia and direct contact with the eyeball, providing quick and painless tonometry
readings independent of corneal biomechanical properties in children and adults.
