The King of Pterygium
Dr. Michel, trained cornea specialist and Lasik surgeon, is referred to as the “King of Pterygium” by other cornea specialists and is one of the more renowned Pterygium surgeons in the world. Those with Pterygium visit Dr. Michel not just from California, but from across the United States, Mexico, and Europe.
He is the Eye Doctor’s #1 Referral Choice for Pterygium Removal Surgery. He specializes in Pterygium removal surgery, also referred to as carnosidad and surfer’s eye because it’s caused by ultraviolet-light exposure (sunlight), low humidity, and dust and while other cornea specialists have recurrence rates of 10-50%, Dr. Michel’s Pterygium recurrence rates are LESS THAN ONE PERCENT.
No Sutures. No Stitches. Very Low Recurrence Rates.
