Ming Wang, MD, PhD is the Director of Wang Vision Cataract and LASIK Center in Nashville, TN, Clinical Associate Professor of the University of Tennessee, Nashville, TN, and International president of Shanghai Aier Eye Hospital, Shanghai, China.

Dr. Wang graduated from Harvard Medical School and Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MD, magna cum laude) in Boston, MA, holds a doctorate degree in laser spectroscopy, and completed his residency at Wills Eye Hospital in Philadelphia, PA and his corneal and refractive surgery fellowship at Bascom Palmer Eye Institute, Miami, FL. He is an editorial board member of Cataract and Refractive Surgery Today and Refractive EyeCare.

A former panel consultant to the United States FDA Ophthalmic Device Panel and a founding director of Vanderbilt Laser Sight Center, Nashville, TN, Dr. Wang published a paper in the world-renowned journal Nature. This was followed by his editing 4 ophthalmic textbooks: Corneal Topography in the Wavefront Era: A Guide for Clinical Application (SLACK Incorporated: Thorofare, NJ; 2006), Irregular Astigmatism: Diagnosis and Treatment (SLACK Incorporated: Thorofare, NJ; 2008), Corneal Dystrophies and Degenerations: A Molecular Genetics Approach (Oxford University Press: New York, NY; 2003), and Keratoconus and Keratoectasia: Prevention, Diagnosis and Treatment (SLACK Incorporated: Thorofare, NJ; 2010). Additionally, he has published over 120 papers and book chapters.

Dr. Wang has several US patents for his inventions of new biotechnologies to restore sight, including an amniotic membrane contact lens, an adaptive infrared retinoscopic device for detecting ocular aberrations, and a digital eye bank for virtual clinical trials. He is currently one of three investigators in the United States conducting an FDA-regulated clinical trial to treat age-related loss of near vision (presbyopia). He introduced the femtosecond laser to China, and performed China's first LASIK procedure using this laser in 2005. He also performed the world's first femtosecond laser-assisted artificial cornea implantation (Alphacor), and the first Intacs procedure in the United States using a new version of Intacs for keratoconus.

Dr. Wang was a recipient of the Academy of Ophthalmology Honor Award, as well as the Lifetime Achievement Award of Association of Chinese American Physicians.

As the founding president of the Tennessee Chinese Chamber of Commerce, and co-owner and international president of Shanghai Aier Eye Hospitals in Shanghai, China, which is the largest private eye hospital group in China today with 28 locations, Dr. Wang founded a 501c(3) nonprofit organization called the Wang Foundation for Christian Outreach to China.

Dr. Wang specializes in refractive cataract surgery; keratorefractive surgery; corneal and external diseases, including keratoconus; and anterior segment reconstructive surgeries with the amniotic membrane, stem cell, and keratoprosthesis. He runs a busy international referral clinic for post-LASIK and postcataract surgery complications. He founded another 501c(3) nonprofit charity, the Wang Foundation for Sight Restoration, which has also helped patients from over 40 states in the United States and 55 countries worldwide with all sight restoration surgeries performed free of charge.

Dr. Wang is a champion amateur ballroom dancer and a former finalist in the world ballroom dance championships in the open pro-am international 10 dance. He plays the Chinese violin (er-hu) and accompanied country music legend Dolly Parton on her CDThose Were the Days. Dr. Wang organized an annual classical ballroom dance sight charity event, the EyeBall, which is now in its 6th year, and has drawn attendees from all over the United States and around the world.
