Dylan Young sets his sights on Formula 1

We were recently delighted to treat racing driver, Dylan Young, at VISTAeyes Laser Eye Clinic.

Dylan, a home grown Melbourne boy, is one of only a handful of Australian racing drivers competing internationally on the pathway to Formula 1.

Naturally, having optimal vision is crucial to Dylan’s racing career and, after noticing his sight was less than perfect, Dylan was determined to get himself into the best possible physical condition in preparation for the upcoming Formula 3 season.

Having heard great feedback from friends about VISTAeyes, Dylan attended a consultation where he was given a thorough examination of his eyes.  He was found to be suitable for laser eye surgery and had his surgery performed by Dr Rick Wolfe two weeks later.

Dr Rick Wolfe performed the laser eye procedure using our latest topographic-guided treatment (Contoura® Vision). Contoura® Vision is a highly customised advancement which treats the individual irregularities of the patient’s cornea, significantly improving visual outcomes.

Here are some snaps we took of Dylan’s experience on the day of his surgery:
