See the world through healthy eyes again

The human eye is a complex organ that works with the brain to enable good vision. The importance of good eye health is rarely fully appreciated until symptoms arise.

Irritation, redness, inward or outward drifting of the eye and blurred vision may be experienced when the eye is not in good health. If left untreated, these can lead to wider problems such as lack of optimal visual development, difficulty concentrating at school or work and social anxiety.

Symptoms may come and go, or they may appear daily. Either way, it is never too late to make a commitment to your own eye health, or that of your children.

PAEDIATRIC OPHTHALMOLOGY

Do any of the following symptoms apply to your child?

  • Red or itchy eyes on a regular basis
  • Complains of blurred vision, seeing double or tired eyes
  • Rubs eye frequently
  • Squints
  • Persistent watery eye
  • Lazy eye – where one eye may wander inward or outward
  • Diagnosis of dyslexia
  • Other eye complaints

If yes, the next step would be to book your child for an assessment with a paediatric ophthalmology specialist to find out the cause of these symptoms and to discuss appropriate treatment options.

PATIENT REVIEWS

Our Patient Reviews detail experiences of parents who have received expert care with regards to the eye health of their child.

S. AL SHIRAWI – 2017

I cannot recommend Dr Jain highly enough. He first saw my son when he was just 18 months old, and after the initial diagnosis of farsightedness, has been holding our hands ever since. He is a natural with children and is both patient and understanding. Equally as important, he has always made himself available to us, the parents, for questions and queries. My son, now 5 1/2, sees his semi annual visits to Dr Jain as a marker of time and a rite of passage

S. NORBURN

On behalf of Emmie I would like to thank you for all your help and prompt correspondence. We have been most grateful for the care we have received from Emmie’s procedure from start to finish. Thank you and Mr Jain very much.

MRS R. LEVY – 2017

Dr Jain has performed 2 cataract surgeries on me. At all times he has been totally professional, prepared to hear what I have to say. Very empathetic to my personal problems, gentle and kind, but always the epitomy of professionalism. My ideal of what a surgeon should be. I have no problem in recommending him to friends. Indeed I have already done so. In gratitude

Mr D SPENS – 2018

Before the procedure, Mr. Jain had explained with great clarity what was entailed, and what the benefits and possible risks were. I felt reassured by this, his willingness to listen, and his empathetic manner. I have become a fan of the minimally invasive surgery he practises. I have felt no pain in my eye at any time in my eye since the procedure – as he promised. My vision is greatly improved. Altogether a good experience

MS. A PORTINARI – 2016

About six weeks after having cataract surgery in 2015, (not done by Mr Jain) I developed double vision. After seeing several consultants, I was introduced to Mr Jain who referred me to his clinic at Barnet Hospital. I was given lots of different test by Mr Jain and his colleagues. Mr. Jain said that he could operate on my left eye, making the eye look straight instead of it looking slightly inwards which he was convinced was causing the double vision. I had the operation on 12th September and from that day onwards the double vision has gone. I feel Mr. Jain has performed a miracle for me and l feel so lucky to have met him.

MRS C. PUGH – 2017

Mr Jain performed surgery to correct my son Edward’s squint aged 2. We have been seeing him for follow up ever since. We were very happy with the results of the surgery. Mr Jain has a lovely manner. He is warm, approachable and always manages to put Edward at ease. He is also extremely patient answering my many questions! I would recommend him unequivocally.
