LASIK Vision Institute Congratulates Pioneers of LASIK Surgery

The LASIK Vision Institute (LVI) extends its heartfelt congratulations to the pioneers behind LASIK surgery for being awarded the National Medal of Technology and Innovation. Inventor Gholam A. Peyman and researchers Samuel Blum, James J. Wynne and Rangaswamy Srinivasan were all honored in a White House ceremony late last week.

The Unites States’ most prestigious honor of its kind, the national award recognizes leading innovators for technological achievement. President Obama personally bestowed the medal upon Peyman, Wynne and Srinivasan. Scientist Samuel Blum passed away last month and received the award posthumously.

“Laser refractive surgical techniques… have revolutionized vision enhancement,” said President Obama in his ceremony address. “I want to congratulate these extraordinary Americans once again for all their accomplishments.”
