Dr. Ilan Cohen: Leading-edge vision correction through unparalleled surgical expertise.
Groundbreaking Achievements and Innovative Procedures
Dr. Cohen's dedication to innovation has led him to pioneer several firsts in the Tri-state area:
First Implantable Contact Lens (ICL) Procedure
Dr. Cohen introduced the ICL for patients with high myopia who either aren't good LASIK candidates or seek an alternative that leaves the cornea largely untouched. His work was featured on both Fox and ABC News, highlighting the revolutionary impact of this “implantable contact lens” approach.
First Artificial Cornea Procedure
A legally blind man regained sight in one eye after decades of darkness when Dr. Cohen performed the area's first artificial cornea surgery. This remarkable case was covered on CBS News, showcasing Dr. Cohen's extraordinary ability to tackle the most difficult ocular challenges.
Additionally, Dr. Cohen has an extensive background in advanced cataract and LASIK surgeries. His track record includes many delicate, high-level procedures that other surgeons have entrusted him with. Each successful outcome reflects his mission to restore or improve sight beyond what glasses or contacts alone can achieve.
