Make an enquiry

I am a fully trained ophthalmic surgeon. I perform both paediatric and adult strabismus (squint) surgery including adjustable sutures. I am also trained in the use of botulinum toxin for the assessment and treatment of double vision and for the treatment of dystonias such as blepharospasm and hemifacial spasm.

I completed fellowships in paediatric ophthalmology and adult strabismus at Moorfields Eye Hospital (London) and the Hospital for Sick Children (Toronto, Canada).
