A subspecialty practice across four pillars.
Each section below explains the conditions I commonly see and the procedures I offer, with plain-English summaries, what to expect during recovery, and answers to the questions patients most often ask.
Eyelid & periocular surgery
Eyelid position, lumps, skin cancer, trauma, blepharospasm, facial palsy.
Ptosis (drooping eyelid)
A drooping upper eyelid that obstructs vision, causes brow ache or simply looks tired. Surgery to lift the eyelid is highly successful when planned around your individual anatomy.
Entropion
When the lower eyelid turns inwards and the lashes scratch the surface of the eye. A short, day-case operation gives long-lasting relief.
Ectropion
When the lower eyelid sags away from the surface of the eye, leaving it red, sore and watering. Surgery restores the normal eyelid position.
Eyelid lumps & cysts
A persistent eyelid lump, cyst or stye that has not settled with conservative measures. Most are benign and easily removed in the clinic or theatre.
Eyelid skin cancer
A two-stage approach to eyelid skin cancer: careful excision with margin control, followed by reconstruction tailored to the size and site of the defect.
Eyelid trauma
Repair of eyelid lacerations, animal bites and complex periocular injuries, restoring both function and appearance.
Functional botulinum toxin
Targeted, low-dose botulinum toxin to relax the involuntary spasm of blepharospasm and hemifacial spasm, improving vision, comfort and quality of life.
Facial palsy
Protecting the eye and restoring facial symmetry after Bell's palsy, acoustic neuroma surgery, parotid surgery or trauma, with a tailored, stepwise approach.
Eyelids & brows
Upper and lower blepharoplasty, brow lift, cosmetic botulinum toxin.
Upper blepharoplasty
Removal of excess upper-lid skin and (where appropriate) a small amount of fat, refreshing the upper eye, opening up the gaze and lifting heavy lids.
Lower blepharoplasty
Refining lower-eyelid bags and tear-trough hollowness, using a transconjunctival, scarless approach where possible.
Brow lift
Repositioning a heavy or asymmetric brow, often the missing piece when upper blepharoplasty alone does not give the result you are after.
Cosmetic botulinum toxin
Refined, anatomy-led aesthetic botulinum toxin around the eyes and brow, softening dynamic lines while preserving natural expression.
Tear ducts & watery eye
Watery eye, endoscopic and external DCR, punctoplasty, Lester Jones tubes.
Watery eye assessment
A structured assessment of the watering eye, to identify the cause precisely before recommending any treatment.
Endoscopic DCR
Scarless surgery for a blocked tear duct, performed entirely through the nose using an endoscope, with a high success rate and quick recovery.
External DCR
The traditional open approach to tear-duct surgery, performed through a small, well-camouflaged incision beside the nose. Highly reliable, with success rates of 90–95%.
Upper-system tear surgery
Surgery for the upper part of the tear-drainage system: narrow puncta, blocked or scarred canaliculi, and bypass tubes for complete obstruction.
Eye socket & thyroid eye
Thyroid eye disease and decompression, orbital tumours, eye removal and socket care.
Thyroid eye disease
A complete pathway for thyroid eye disease, from medical management of active inflammation to orbital decompression, squint surgery and eyelid surgery in the rehabilitation phase.
Orbital tumours
Diagnosis and surgical management of tumours within the eye socket, from benign lacrimal-gland lesions to lymphoma, vascular lesions and rare malignancies.
Eye removal & socket care
Compassionate, considered care when an eye must be removed, and long-term management of the artificial eye and socket that follows.
Cataract & general eye care
Cataract surgery and general eye assessment.
