Drs. Buckley and Danzo, founders of the 20⁄20 Institute, have combined their experience of more than 30 years in the art of vision correction to create a vision correction institute that is committed to providing each patient with the best individualized treatment option available in the world today for the correction of nearsightedness, farsightedness, astigmatism and presbyopia.
Well before the excimer laser was first approved by the FDA in 1995, both doctors participated in the leading-edge technologies that have evolved into the tremendous laser vision correction advances of today.
Dr. Buckley is a board-certified ophthalmologist who has studied and performed refractive eye care since the late 1980s. Dr. Danzo is a Doctor of Optometry who has participated in the development of refractive surgery techniques, both as a doctor and as a patient.
Both doctors personally have had the LASIK procedure performed. They also lecture throughout the United States and internationally on all aspects of patient care, as well as the latest refractive surgery procedures and techniques.
