Tiger Woods
This professional golfer underwent LASIK eye surgery for the first time in 1999, and then again 8 years after that. Woods was tired of contending with glasses and contacts while trying to play professional golf, which is what prompted him to undergo the surgery.

Jessica Simpson
This well-known actress, fashion designer and artist underwent LASIK eye surgery in 2004. Simpson stated that prior to LASIK, she was legally blind and couldn’t see a thing. Her surgery was a big success, enabling her to see better than she could have ever asked for.
