Dr. Jerreyll Jackson – Medical Director
Jerreyll Jackson, MD is a board-certified ophthalmologist who is known for his expertise in Vision Correction Surgery. Since 1999, Dr. Jackson has dedicated his career to the art of laser vision correction, helping thousands of people just like you achieve the miracle of 20/20 vision and beyond. Dr. Jackson is one of a prestigious group of doctors who holds the distinction of fellowship training in laser eye surgery. Dr. Jackson graduated Cum Laude from Norfolk State University, and received his medical degree from the Brody School of Medicine. After medical school he attended residency in Ophthalmology at Howard University, where he held the honor of Chief Resident. Dr. Jackson completed his Ophthalmology training with a Refractive Surgery fellowship at St. George Corrective Vision Center in Chicago, Illinois. He has performed more than 10,000 LASIK procedures since fellowship. In addition to presenting numerous peer reviewed publications at Howard University, he is a member of the American Society of Cataract and Refractive Surgeons, the International Academy of Refractive Surgeons and the American Academy of Ophthalmology.
Dr. Jackson has built his reputation as one of the premiere LASIK surgeons in New York the old fashioned way; one patient at a time. His approach to medicine and patient care are what set him apart. This philosophy starts with the highest investment in technology and the facility that houses that technology. But technology is only as good as the surgeon using it. That’s why Dr. Jackson prides himself on having the strictest qualifications for determining if someone is a candidate for LASIK eye surgery. Dr. Jackson understands that “fear†is what holds people back from there dream of waking up with clear LASIK vision. Dr. Jackson’s patients appreciate that fact and as a result, refer friends and family members.
Dr. Jackson’s long history as a leader in the LASIK field began in Chicago. After completing a successful fellowship in Chicago, he decided to bring his expertise to New York City where he joined the largest LASIK practice in the tri-state area. After performing thousands of successful procedures and leading the way for additional growth, Dr. Jackson decided to offer his LASIK services to the greater New York area from his own facility. Today Dr. Jackson is the medical director of Nuvision Medicenters, the leader in innovation for the advancement of laser eye surgery. Dr. Jackson’s reputation for innovation was cemented last summer with the opening of Nuvision’s state-of-the-art LASIK facilities, situated in the heart of Midtown Manhattan and Connecticut.
Surgical skill and advanced technology are only meaningful when a complete evaluation reveals a solid safety profile. My formula for success starts with selecting the most qualified patients for LASIK.
