Algorithms created for measuring @NASAWebb’s mirrors have been integrated into a device that precisely measures eye imperfections in visual pathways and cornea curvature. This tech has advanced LASIK procedures here on Earth! 👀 💫 go.nasa.gov/3aQWt5u

They're a 9 AND they stay in contact one million miles away—that’s a 10 in our books. @NASAWebb keeps in touch via the Deep Space Network even one million miles from Earth. On July 12, Webb's first images will be revealed. Join the countdown: go.nasa.gov/3M9PeT1

You've probably heard of LASIK, but have you ever wondered about the history behind it? The LASIK we know today is very different from the LASIK we started with, which began in 1948. Check out my Facebook for more!

This Black History Month, we want to celebrate Dr. Patricia Bath. As an ophthalmologist and inventor– she helped to revolutionize cataract surgery through her invention of the Laserphaco Probe. #BlackHistoryMonth #cataractsurgery #inventor

Today the first mirror wing on @NASAWebb swung into place, but did you know that work ensuring the mirrors were perfectly polished led to tools that help diagnose eye conditions and improve Lasik surgery? Read about this and more space telescope spinoffs: go.nasa.gov/3G8bqL4

Replying to @sapiotextual
I wore glasses from age 10 to 52. Then I got LASIK, and never "looked back". It's amazing, if you are a candidate. The procedure I had also minimized my need for reading glasses while fixing my myopia and astigmatism.

I often come across patients who aren’t eligible for LASIK due to thin corneas. However, they still have ways to achieve crystal-clear vision with PRK! If you have any questions about PRK I would love to answer them! Comment here or send me a DM.
