At Motwani Lasik Institute, one of the oldest refractive practices in San Diego, Dr. Manoj V. Motwani's lasers have sharpened the vision of professional athletes, physicians, and crime fighters alike. The doctor, who has more than 20 years of experience performing refractive surgeries and has done LASIK on more than 100 physicians, corrects nearsightedness, farsightedness, and astigmatism, and is one of the only refractive surgeons in the country that performs corneal laser reconstructive repair for eyes damaged by trauma, disease, or past surgery. He even helps patients 40-70 years old read without wearing glasses.

The Contoura topographic guided system first became available in early 2016, and Dr. Motwani received the first post-FDA study system in the U.S. He published the first publications and protocol (LYRA Protocol) to create a cornea better than regular human one, which would lead to less scatter of light, and potentially higher resolution (increased chance of 20/15 vision), improved clarity, and better vision in the darkness e.g. during the night. Positive outcomes of his work have been shown to even decrease the effects of visual processing strain such as chronic headaches or major night glare. His publications concerning this subject include treating high myopia up to -16 and high hyperopia, as well as the reconstructive repair of severely warped and irregular corneas. Dr. Motwani's dedication to advancements in the industry allows him to give his patients improved vision and a better quality of life. He is considered one of the leading experts in the United States on topographic guided ablation and has written the only published reconstructive repair protocol to repair corneas.
