Andrew Hain came into the office a few weeks ago for a LASIK evaluation. He was getting tired of his contacts and jealous of his wife’s LASIK vision. After determining he was a good candidate, Andrew asked me if I did LASIK on any famous athletes. When I listed some of many athletes if have treated with LASIK including one of the Olympic Gold Medal Bobsledders he asked, “Curt Tomasevicz?” I was a little surprised that he knew Curt’s name, and said, “yes.”
It turns out Andrew is Nebraska transplant, now living in New Jersey. He is a big Corn Husker Football fan, as well as a Curt Tomasevicz fan. I reached out to Curt and told him the story. He was kind enough to send me a personalized autographed photo for Andrew. After Andrew’s LASIK yesterday, I sat him up and asked him if he could read the clock on the wall. He could. I then asked him how his close vision was and asked him to read the autographed photo. It took him a second to register the surprise! The only thing better was his 20/20 vision today…
