As 2009 winds to its end, it is very common to see lists of the year’s best and worst. From songs to movies, from news makers to sporting events. Here is my list of the 10 best posts of The LASIK Blog for 2009.
- LASIK for the Gold’s Katherine Reutter Loves Colbert Nation. Stephan Colbert made the news this year when he decided to sponsor the US Speed Skating team in next year’s Olympic Games. Katherine Reutter, a member of LASIK for the Gold, had a great appearance on the Colbert Show. She even had her leg signed by Colbert! LASIK for the Gold is a program that offers free LASIK to our US Olympic athletes.
- Vision Harvest 2009 Featured on Fox’ Good Day New York. Dr. Sapna Parikh, medical correspondent for Fox 5 news did a story featuring OCLI‘s involvement in providing free Cataract Surgery to those in need. The result, 20 patients underwent the procedure for free on the day before thanksgiving. Our hope is to make Vision Harvest an annual event. I will keep you posted.
