Considered by many to be one of the world’s leading laser surgeons, Joseph Dello Russo, M.D. helped develop and test the laser for FDA approval and has since introduced and pioneered most of the major advances in laser vision correction. With Dello Russo Eye Center locations in Manhattan, Brooklyn, and Bergenfield, New Jersey, Dr. Joseph Dello Russo provides his patients with the highest quality care and superior results by combining the safest and most precise methods in the world today.

In addition to being a primary clinical investigator for the VISX Excimer Laser clinical trials which lead to FDA approval, Joseph Dello Russo, M.D. was also selected to be the first ophthalmologist in the country to offer improved laser vision correction results with the LADARVision laser.

The Dello Russo Eye Center served as the only FDA laser vision correction test site in New Jersey and was one of only 10 primary FDA test sites in the country.
