Using highly advanced medical equipment that can change your eyesight, specialised eye surgeons such as Dr. Sharmina Khan from the renowned Moorfields Hospital in London can perform eye surgery that will leave you without the need for contact lenses or glasses. These technologies provide more accurate prescription measurement before, during, and after surgery, cutting-edge lens implants, and computer-guided laser correction of any residual prescription after the eye has recovered from cataract surgery.

Dr. Khan received her ophthalmology degree from University College London in 1998 and began working as a consultant ophthalmic surgeon at the prestigious Moorfields Private Eye Hospital in 2002. One of the most well-known ophthalmic surgeons in London, she completed additional training in corneal surgery, cataract surgery, and external eye disease.

“You can rest assured knowing that Sharmina Khan exclusively employs cutting-edge technology that can genuinely improve your eyesight when choosing cataract surgery, along with vision correction. Miss Khan only employs the most cutting-edge technology to successfully remove cataracts, but she also employs the same technology to correct farsightedness, near-sightedness, and astigmatism, and it reduces your dependence on contact lenses or reading glasses. By removing the cloudy lens and replacing it with a clear lens during cataract surgery, the affected lens and decreased vision caused by the cataract, are fully addressed.

Eye surgery performed by Miss Khan is guaranteed to improve your vision, and she uses advanced technology to establish the best possible treatment, which is also based on your vision preferences, desired outcome, and lifestyle,” said Helen Hughson – the practice secretary.

She added that although vision correction surgery is not always deemed ‘medically required’ and may not be covered by your insurance, monofocal cataract surgery is mostly a benefit that is fully covered. However, Miss Khan will discuss your budget and financial choices with you during a consultation, to address any issues or questions you may have and to assist you in making an informed choice.

For the best vision outcome, some patients who choose cataract surgery with vision correction may require further laser vision correction or enhancement surgeries. However, the advice for improvement is made at the eye doctor's discretion following a thorough examination and according to the patient's specific requirements.
