OMAHA — Kugler Vision is honored to announce that Josh Peterson, a host on KOZN 1620 The Zone sports radio, has chosen Lance Kugler, MD, to perform his vision correction surgery. Josh will have the life-changing procedure later this month at Kugler Vision, the Midwest’s leader and premier provider in advanced vision correction.
Josh, a 29-year-old Nebraska native, graduated from the University of Nebraska-Lincoln in 2012 with a degree in broadcast journalism, and became the co-host of Unsportsmanlike Conduct on KOZN 1620 The Zone in August 2014. Creighton soccer fans will also recognize his voice, as he lends his talents to calling the games.
Josh brings his wit, passion, and love of sports to The Zone – and it’s easy to understand why his vision is a top priority. It’s his job to be the eyes for the listeners. He describes the sights, sounds, and excitement of each play. His eyesight is what helps him keep listeners informed and entertained. After his vision correction procedure, his job will be a bit easier.
Josh isn’t alone in his decision to enhance his view with laser vision correction. Many people, especially sports enthusiasts and athletes, have turned to laser vision correction to improve their vision so they don’t have to rely on glasses or contact lenses to see clearly. When you need precise, accurate vision in the moment, glasses and contact lenses often let you down.
“After wearing glasses for almost 20 years, I am looking forward to clear eyesight that doesn’t require waking up and putting on a pair every single day. From going to sporting events, reading books, and even driving around, my life will change for the better. I am so excited for this opportunity with Dr. Kugler and his team!” Josh says. At Kugler Vision, we are excited for Josh to transform his life with laser vision correction. “Vision correction surgery is life changing, and we are deeply honored to serve the Omaha community and make lives better,” said Lance Kugler, MD, founder and physician CEO.
Dr. Kugler is available to the media to speak further on the benefits of laser vision correction and how it can be a lifestyle and sports enhancement.
