Surgical eye treatments like refractive lens exchange surgery and cataract surgery, as well as the treatment of eye conditions like glaucoma, severe diabetic retinopathy, retinal detachment, and other retinal and macular pathologies, necessitate the skill and expertise of an ophthalmologist like Dr Sharmina Khan from the Moorfields Private Eye Clinic in London.

Dr Khan is a Consultant Ophthalmic Surgeon who joined this world-famous institution in 2002 after receiving her ophthalmology degree from University College London in 1998. She went on to complete advanced training in corneal and cataract surgery, and the treatment of various eye disorders.

Dr Khan specialises in, amongst others, monofocal lens implants, which provide patients with crystal clear lenses, resulting in better vision when watching a movie, sports, or reading signs at a distance while driving.
“Previously, most cataract surgeons would choose the type of lens to implant after cataract removal and patients did not have any options before the arrival of advanced technology in eye care. All of the lens implants used were monofocal lens implants. After cataract surgery, a monofocal lens implant provides an exceptional vision for distant reading. Monofocal lenses, however, do not correct presbyopia; rather, they are specifically intended to allow focus at a single distance — near, middle, or distance,” said Helen Hughson – the practice secretary.

Dr Khan has worked as an eye specialist and consultant ophthalmic surgeon for over a decade in both the public and private sectors, and she aims to ensure that every patient is fully informed about their eye disorder, the possible treatment options, and surgical alternatives from the moment they walk through her doors. She also boasts an excellent patient rating, validified by Doctify.

Dr Khan’s clinic is located on the fourth floor of Moorfields Private Eye Hospital, where she performs most of her surgical eye treatments, and her services as an eye specialist are well appreciated by both patients and medical colleagues, especially when it comes to speciality eye surgery. The clinical staff members are also exceptionally knowledgeable about the particular requirements of eye surgery and go out of their way to ensure that the needs of even the most apprehensive patients are carefully taken care of.

While premium lens replacement and cataract surgeries are exclusively performed at Moorfields Eye Hospital, the SK Eye Clinic in the West End offers functional and effective blepharitis treatments and treatment for conditions such as the dry eye.
