LOS ANGELES, June 21 /PRNewswire/ -- No one may remember, but Derek Fisher was in constant combat against two unique adversaries on the court: his contact lens as well as the opposing team, much like Superman battling two enemies at once. Over ten years ago, Los Angeles eye surgeon Dr. Brian Boxer Wachler, MD witnessed an episode of "Derek vs. the Contact Lens and the Visiting Team." During a game, a lens suddenly popped out. Everything was brought to a screeching halt as Derek dropped to his knees and hunted for his lost lens on the floor as his teammates, coaches, opponents, fans, and broadcasters watched him struggle. And another point was chalked up for the contact lens against the venerable three-point shooter.
In the off-season, frustrated yet determined to subdue his optical opponent, Derek came to Dr. Boxer Wachler for the ultimate secret weapon - LASIK vision correction. After waking up the day after LASIK with crystal clear vision, Derek never again had to agonize over his contact lens foe. Fisher victoriously reported, "It was absolutely wonderful to wake up one day after surgery and see!" Since then, Fisher now has five NBA Champion rings.
Dr. Boxer Wachler said, "We are humbled to have played one small role in Derek's decade of determination and success. I'm thrilled for his fifth NBA championship!" In celebration of the extraordinary win against the Boston Celtics, Dr. Boxer Wachler broke out his favorite eye chart:
