Gulani Vision Institute is marking its 20th anniversary, a significant milestone with a world record in medical tourism. Under the leadership of Dr. Arun Gulani, the institute has become a global beacon for advanced eye surgery, having consulted patients from more than 100 countries.
More than 30 patients have traveled recently from around the world and across the country to participate in a group photograph to celebrate their successful treatments before travelling back home. Such everyday accomplishments and patient journeys not only highlight the institute's impact on their lives but also its pivotal role in placing Jacksonville on the map as a premier destination for eye surgery.
Gulani, the founding director, has spent more than 30 years at the forefront of ophthalmology, pioneering innovative surgical techniques, crafting award-winning inventions and authoring influential textbooks and articles. His efforts have drawn patients globally, contributing significantly to the field and to medical tourism on the First Coast.
Among the patients in this year’s gathering are Joel, who traveled from Australia and regained his vision after 25 years thanks to Gulani’s expertise. Joel also received treatment for a severely disfigured and red eye. Another patient, Robert from London, sought Gulani’s help to correct complications from a previous Lasik surgery. Patients from across the United States have also sought out Gulani’s patented surgical techniques, including LaZrPlastique for Lasik enhancement, LenzOplastique for advanced cataract surgery, and Corneoplastique for corneal repairs, all of which were developed at Gulani Vision Institute.
Gulani Vision Institute is located at 8075 Gate Parkway West, Suite 102, Jacksonville. For further information, go to gulanivision.com.
