Dr Wang's Biography

From Darkness to Sight shares the remarkable life journey of Dr. Ming Wang, a world-renowned laser eye surgeon and philanthropist. It is an inspirational story of how one man turned fear, poverty, persecution, and prejudice into healing and love for others.

Dr. Wang,

I am writing to express my heartfelt gratitude for the superb care you and Wang Vision Institute have provided me over the past 15 years.  When we first met in 2000, I was aware that I had corneal dystrophies in both eyes and that it was a genetic abnormality that ultimately would cause loss of vision. I also had 20/800 myopia and had worn glasses since I was 7 years old.  Finding out that you were on the team at Harvard that discovered the gene that caused my condition and that, through the use of the laser, you could eliminate my dystrophies and correct my vision gave me hope I had not dreamed of.

As an engineer, I depend on the quality of my eyesight to make a living. Because of the gift of restored sight through your PRK and PTK procedures, I have not had to wear glasses and have been free of residual effects from the dystrophies.  As you know, I have also developed cataracts as I have aged and I am so pleased to let you and your team know that the lenses you gave me through your 3D laser cataract procedures have again restored the clarity of my vision.  My need for glasses of any kind has been eliminated and I cannot tell you what a difference that makes in my daily life.

Your skills as a doctor, your expertise in laser physics and your compassionate care and friendship over the years have profoundly changed my life.  I cannot imagine how things would have turned out had God’s hand not directed me to you and the resources of the Institute.  I have always and will continue to recommend you and your team to everyone I meet that has eye issues.

Thank you for all you have done to help restore my eyesight over the years.  May God bless your wonderful work as you continue to provide the gift of sight to all you touch.

With deepest respect,

Terri Oquin
