Sheraz M. Daya

MD FACP FACS FRCS(Ed) FRCOphth WCRS

An award-winning eye surgeon recognised internationally for his contribution to Ophthalmology, Cornea, Cataract and Refractive Surgery. Mr. Daya has performed over 30,000 cataract procedures and has been doing small incision cataract surgery since 1990. He is the recipient of many medals, named lectureships and was on the Power List of the top Ophthalmologists globally for 3 years in a row.

Mr Daya’s Story…

After completing his training in the United States, Mr Daya was Director of Cornea and External Disease at the Catholic Medical Centre and in practice on Madison Avenue, New York.

In 1993 he was appointed Director and Consultant Ophthalmic Surgeon of the Corneo Plastic Unit and Eye Bank at the Queen Victoria Hospital NHS Trust, East Grinstead.

In 1994 Mr Daya performed the first the LASIK laser vision correction procedure in the UK and became a well-known trainer of the procedure.

Dissatisfied with the limitations of eye care provision in private hospitals, he felt compelled to establish a “Centre for Excellence” intended to provide patients with the world class personalised medical and surgical eye care as well as set the standards for laser eye surgery.

Anticipating refractive surgery (surgery to correct shortsight, farsight and astigmatism) would become a popular procedure, it was important to him that the clinic became a leading authority in any matter concerning the cornea and front of the eye.

Mr Daya founded Centre for Sight in 1996 and under his leadership and expertise Centre for Sight has grown phenomenally now with 3 locations and more to follow.

Centre for Sight has a phenomenal reputation for providing exemplary eye care with eye surgeons visiting internationally to observe or even to have procedures performed on themselves or their family by Mr. Daya. The clinic draws referrals from all over the world, including Peru, USA, Canada, the Middle East, Africa and the Far East and the patients include Royalty, Presidents and Prime ministers!

Mr. Daya has pioneered a number of techniques and has been involved in the area of Stem Cell Transplantation and tissue engineering. His techniques and outcomes have been reported in the international press and revealed on TV as the surgeon who restored the sight of Katie Piper, the celebrity who was the subject of a viscous acid attack. As a result of his expertise, Mr Daya is constantly invited to lecture at international meetings and lectures on a variety of topics including femtosecond Laser Cataract Surgery, Cornea, Stem cell transplantation, LASIK and other Refractive surgery techniques. He has also developed instrumentation for LASIK and other corneal procedures that are in regular use worldwide.

Under Mr. Daya’s leadership, Centre for Sight continues to lead the UK in advances in technology and eye care. Mr. Daya introduced femtosecond lasers to the UK in 1994 and this “blade-free” laser surgery is now the gold standard for LASIK. Mr. Daya has again introduced the Victus Femtosecond laser for cataract and Laser Lens Exchange. This procedure although expensive is safer and more accurate and is rapidly becoming the gold standard for cataract and lens replacement surgery. Mr. Daya has now performed over 30,000 cataract procedures.

Mr. Daya has also invented a series of innovative ophthalmic instruments for use in Corneal Transplantation, Collagen Cross Linking (CXL), Laser refractive Surgery and more recently femtosecond laser cataract surgery. He has devised a new technique called “Trans-lens Hydrodissection” which enables easy removal of the lens during femtosecond laser cataract and lens surgery. Bausch and Lomb introduced the “Daya Trans-lens Hydrodissection Cannula” at the American Academy of Ophthalmology 2012. A video of the procedure can be seen by clicking here…

Valued for having a “crystal ball”, Mr Daya is a consultant to several companies in the ophthalmic industry, Mr. Daya thus has access to technology before most others in the world and patients coming to Centre for Sight can be assured they are at all times receiving world class diagnostics and treatment.
