Miami Heat guard Dwyane Wade underwent Lasik eye surgery Friday morning in Sunrise, Fla.
The seven-time All-Star announced the news at about 1 p.m. Friday afternoon when he wrote on Twitter, “Just made my first move of the summer to get better next year..i got lasik on my eyes..thanks to Dr Lessner at Millennium Laser eye center”
The surgery was a success, according to Dr. Cory Lessner, who has performed more than 25,000 Lasik procedures, including Wade’s.
“His procedure went like clockwork,” Lessner said in a statement. “We’re extremely honored that Dwyane entrusted us with his precious eyesight.”
Lasik surgery is an outpatient procedure that involves the laser removal of corneal tissue. The surgery is intended to reduce a patient’s dependence on glasses or contacts.
