How Dr. Gulani is Transforming Eyecare from Jacksonville for The World
Summary of the Around Town with Arun Gulani of Gulani Vision Institute
When it comes to eyecare excellence, one name stands out—Dr. Arun Gulani. Recently featured on Buzz Around Town with Tom, Dr. Gulani shared his incredible journey, his unwavering dedication to patient care, and how he has put Jacksonville, Florida, on the globe for vision correction.
A Passion for Perfection
Dr. Gulani’s philosophy is simple: vision correction should never settle for just “good enough.” His commitment to pushing the boundaries of eye surgery has led him to achieve outcomes beyond 20/20 vision, redefining what’s possible in LASIK, cataract, corneal, and refractive surgery.
“I was born with 20/10 vision, and I tell doctors—don’t settle for 20/20 when a patient’s brain has the capacity for more. We should always strive for the patient’s best vision potential.” – Dr. Gulani
A Global Destination for Vision Correction
For over two decades, Dr. Gulani has welcomed patients from over 100 countries, many of whom were told they were “not candidates” for surgery elsewhere. Unlike traditional practices, Gulani Vision Institute doesn’t advertise—its reputation is built purely on word-of-mouth and unmatched results.
Patients fly in from Germany, Dubai, Australia, and beyond, seeking the expertise and personalized care that have set world records in medical tourism. Dr. Gulani approaches each case with precision, passion, and an artist’s touch, crafting customized vision solutions that transform lives.
Why Jacksonville?
When asked how he landed in Jacksonville, Dr. Gulani humorously replied:
“I ran out of gas.”
But the real story? He was invited to start UF’s LASIK department, fell in love with the city, and never looked back. Today, he considers Jacksonville home, flying across the world to teach and perform surgery but always returning to the 904—a place he describes as “beautiful, welcoming, and the perfect home for world-class eyecare.”
A Doctor Who Gives Everything
Dr. Gulani’s connection with his patients is not just professional—it’s deeply personal. He shares meals with them, remembers their stories, and treats each individual with unparalleled compassion.
“To me, there are no barriers. My patients become family. My focus is not on business—it’s on giving them everything they need to see their best.”
As host Tom perfectly summarized:
“Dr. Gulani, you’re a game-changer. You’ve made Jacksonville world-renowned, and we’re honored to have you in our town.”
