How does Sharmina Khan’s Eye Clinic differ private high street providers of eye care?

Choosing the right eye care provider can feel overwhelming. While private high street providers of eye care offer excellent care, there are key differences when you choose Sharmina Khan’s Eye Clinic, based at Moorfields Private Eye Hospital. One of the biggest differences is the continuity of care—a crucial factor when undergoing eye procedures like cataract surgery.

1. Personalised care from start to finish

Unlike private high street providers of eyecare, where you might see different doctors at various stages of your care, Sharmina Khan provides consistent, personalised care. From your first consultation to your surgery and your final follow-up, you’ll see only Sharmina Khan as your expert clinician, ensuring:

  • A trusting relationship: No need to repeat your medical history to different doctors
  • Tailored treatment plans: Your care is guided by one surgeon who works in world renowned facilities and understands your unique needs and ensure you are given the option of an appropriate premium lens that suits your current and future daily activities.
  • Reassurance and comfort: Seeing the same familiar face at every stage reduces anxiety and builds confidence, as there is a continuity in conversation. Sharmina Khan has an incredible memory for details triggered by detailed AI assisted note-taking.

2. Faster access to care

High street private providers of eye care do incredible work but often operate with different personnel at each stage of your care sometimes making you feel like you are on a production line. This is not the case at Sharmina Khan’s Eye Clinic, where you can expect:

  • Timely appointments: within 7 days of calling into the office
  • Prompt procedures: Quick scheduling for your procedure once you’re deemed suitable eg with 7-14 days
  • Rapid and close follow-up care: you will have a telephone consult 2-3 days later and be seen face- to-face at a time to suit you and your travel plans if you are flying abroad and within 7-10 days later and in addition Sharmina Khan’s direct mobile number to access her on Whatsapp or text using SMS to support if you have any concerns both in and out of hours. This is in addition to contact details to Sharmina Khan’s office.

3. State-of-the-art technology

Being based at Moorfields Private Eye Hospital means we have access to world-class equipment and advanced technology such as femtosecond laser and Callisto digital intraoperative technology. The technology we use for diagnostics, treatments, and post-operative care is often more advanced than what’s available by some private providers.

4. Comprehensive pre- and post-operative support

Continuity of care extends beyond the procedure itself. Sharmina Khan provides:

  • Detailed pre-operative consultations herself: We explain the procedure, address concerns, and ensure you’re fully informed about your different intraocular lens options and anaesthetic options.
  • Often the information is a lot to take in and we offer free tele-health consultations ahead of your surgery date to allay any fears and answer any additional queries or simply to repeat what we have already discussed.
  • Personalised recovery plans: Tailored advice and follow-up appointments to monitor your progress
  • 24/7 access to support: If you have concerns after your procedure, you’ll know exactly who to contact. All patients are given Sharmina Khan’s direct mobile number to WhatsApp call her in addition to her office number 07700 149 217 and email info@sharminakhan.co.uk

Why continuity of care matters

What our patients say…

Had cataract surgery on both eyes simultaneously last week and, 7 days later, the vision is brilliant. I can see to read as well, including small print smaller than I expected! I can see car number plates at the end of the road. Everything was excellent, and I could not have wished for anything better.

My cataract surgery was a great experience. My vision is now brighter; overall, I felt informed and secure throughout, and I am glad I did it and definitely recommend Sharmina Khan. Everyone at the hospital was great, very professional, friendly, and treated me very nicely. During the surgery, I didn’t feel any pain at any time. The recovery was very easy and smooth.

I was very nervous about having cataract surgery, as I have other medical conditions in both eyes. Ms. Khan allayed all of my fears and explained everything in detail to me. Now that both surgeries are completed, I couldn’t be more pleased with the results. I’m seeing things I’ve not been able to see properly in years. Amazing!

I had cataract surgery in both eyes. The procedure was painless, easy to understand, and swift. My anxiety levels were very low, and recovery was quick and easy. I was just so relaxed. My vision was like being Wonder Woman. It was so clear, and it was like someone had cleaned a window. Now, my vision is fine for reading, computer use, and using a sewing machine.

Extremely happy with vision following cataract surgery. I wish I had it done sooner. The colors I am experiencing, I didn’t know existed. The experience was really good; it wasn’t much painful. I really enjoyed the sandwiches afterward. When I got home, I saw every little mark on the walls and now am cleaning up!

6/5. Incredibly impressed with Miss Khan’s bedside manner and operation and consultation. I have had the Synergy toric lens and have experienced a dramatic increase in distance vision. Now, I am able to read stuff on the television perfectly, and reading small print, I can now read the back of a tin of beans!

Miss Khan was very professional, and both my eyes had trifocal intra-ocular lens implants (toric in the left). The risks and benefits were explained to my satisfaction, and I was very nervous. However, the procedure and the recovery were painless. I now have perfect unaided vision in both eyes and would recommend Miss Khan, 10 out of 10.

I’m so pleased I sought Sharmina Khan’s help. My dry eye problem was debilitating. I turned up to my appointment in a very worried state and left reassured. My eyes are now vastly better. I feel in good hands. Thank you!

I have had Lipiflow a few times now, and I couldn’t do without it because it really gets rid of my gritty and sore eyes for months at a time. Lipiflow has helped me go back to doing normal things without getting frustrated, like driving, tolerating air conditioning, generally tolerating different humidity levels, and not feeling like I need to use eye drops all the time. I would highly recommend it.
