Mr Ammar Almasri is a specialist eye surgeon who has been qualified as a doctor for 20 years. Such is his experience and competence in refractive surgery he has been awarded the prestigious "Certification in Refractive Surgery" qualification from the Royal College of Ophthalmologists after undergoing a rigorous assessment of his surgical skills. Holding such a certification means he is a fully accredited laser eye surgeon and one that you can be confident will provide you with the eye sight you have always wanted. There are only 54 surgeons in the UK and Ireland who hold this certification and this is something he is especially proud of achieving.

Mr Ammar Almasri is extremely confident in both Lasek and Lasik with a very high visual success rate and very low retreatment rate (less than 1%). He has been performing laser eye surgery for the past 11 years and has already carried out over 18,000 procedures meaning he is very experienced.

Prior to becoming a refractive surgeon he worked as an Ophthalmologist in various renowned hospitals in the UK such as the Southampton University Hospitals NHS Trust. He also spent time working in the largest Ophthalmology centre in Syria, The Eyes Surgical Teaching Hospital, where he had the opportunity to work alongside some world acclaimed ophthalmologists, gaining invaluable experience in the process.
