Chicago Lasik Surgeon Offering Up to $2,000 Discount on Lasik Procedures for "American Heroes"

    CHICAGO, IL, June 27, 2010 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Doctors for Visual Freedom Laser Center is offering a discount of $1,000 per eye off their best Lasik procedure to the "American Heroes" who make our lives better and safer. This includes policemen, firefighters, paramedics, military personnel, and teachers.

With a history of more than 22,000 successful procedures, Dr. Mark Golden and his staff are fully aware of "on-the-job" vision problems faced daily by soldiers and first responders. "Extreme physical activity, dust, smoke and sweat make it difficult for most eyeglass and contact lens wearers to function properly in their jobs," said Dr. Mark Golden, "Add to that fact that on a daily basis, many of these professionals are also risking their lives, or are responsible for the lives of others, and you have more than enough reason to believe that freedom from glasses and contacts can become a critical issue."

Doctors for Visual Freedom Laser Center is prepared to do everything they can to free patients from glasses and contacts, working hard to meet their schedules with appointments available during the weekdays as well as Monday and Tuesday evenings and Saturdays.

Lasik services include the latest, state-of-the-art equipment. Golden, having practiced refractive surgery for over twenty years, provides the highest quality in care. Pre- and post-care is inclusive, as Dr. Golden is involved from beginning to end.

"This is an opportunity for us to thank the true heroes in our community," continued Dr. Golden, "Their commitment and sacrifice is a debt we can never repay."

"As the father of an 11-year-old finishing the fifth grade, I know how desperately important teachers are to our future," said Dr. Golden of Doctors for Visual Freedom Laser Center. "There is nothing more important than the education of our youth. Teachers are underpaid with recent budget cuts due to the struggling economy, as are our other American Heroes, and we want to do our part."

Candidates interested in taking advantage of this tremendous opportunity can contact the practice to schedule an eye exam at 1-877-393-3701 or find more information at www.doctorsforvisualfreedom.com.
