| Special Interests | I am a fellowship-trained paediatric ophthalmologist and adult strabismologist specialising in managing squints in children and adults. I have completed two Fellowships in Paediatric Ophthalmology and Strabismus at St. James?s University Hospital in Leeds. I have been practising as a Paediatric Ophthalmology Consultant since January 2015. I initially worked as a Locum Consultant in Paediatrics at Manchester Royal Eye Hospital. Since December 2015 I have practiced as a Consultant at St. James?s University Hospital in Leeds. I run several specialist clinics including Paediatric Clinics, Adult Squint and Neuro-ophthalmology Clinics and a dedicated Paediatric Neuro-ophthalmology Clinic on a monthly basis. My NHS timetable incorporates operating lists where I perform Paediatric and Adult Strabismus operations at Leeds Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust. I have got a special interest in Paediatric Ophthalmic Neuro-oncology and in the management of children with brain tumours and subsequent ophthalmic problems. I have a number of peer reviewed publications and I am involved in clinical research projects assessing the impact of paediatric brain tumours on the visual system. |
