McCann has Round 2 of Lasik eye surgery
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
Braves catcher Brian McCann had a second round of Lasik eye surgery Friday, in hopes of playing next season without glasses he wore for most of the 2009 season.
The procedure Friday was referred to as an enhancement to Lasik surgery McCann had in 2007. Both surgeries were by Dr. Alan Kozarsky, the Atlanta ophthalmologist who did Lasik on Tiger Woods and Greg Maddux, among others.
McCann hit .195 in April before going on the disabled list with blurred vision, which doctors tried to correct using various drops and contact lenses. Eventually he was fitted for prescription glasses, after never playing in glasses before.
He made his fourth consecutive All-Star team and hit .281 with 21 homers and a career-high 94 RBIs in 138 games. However, McCann had problems with the lenses fogging and rain or perspiration obscuring his view.
