The Steve Holcomb-Dr. Brian Story.  Vancouver Olympics Media Information

U.S. Olympic Bobsled Driver Steve Holcomb went from being legally blind to World Champion after Dr. Brian Boxer Wachler saved Steve's eyesight with non-surgical Holcomb C3-R procedure. Steve made history by winning GOLD at the Vancouver 2010 Winter Olympics on February 27, 2010 - the first U.S. Gold in 62 years in the 4-man bobsled.  His comeback story of overcoming blindness and retirement to super-sight and becoming Olympic Champion is an emotional and inspirational story.
