Professional statement
Mr CT Pillai is one of the most experienced laser eye surgeons in the UK, having performed more than 30,000 LASIK, LASEK and PRK procedures over a 25-year career. Mr Pillai's surgical skills and record of very low complication rates have been widely applauded in specialist journals such as Journal of Cataract & Refractive Surgery, Eye, IOVS, Optician and Cosmetic Surgery. He is the medical director and founder of Advanced Vision Care, a leading independent eye surgery clinic with a global reputation for high success rates and extensive post-surgical care.
Originally qualifying from the University of Madras in 1980, Mr Pillai moved to the UK and became a fellow of the Royal College of Ophthalmologists in 1990. After extensive training with internationally recognised surgeons in Greece, the UK and the USA, he became one of the few surgeons in the UK to be granted a Fellowship in both Corneal and Refractive Surgery.

I had laser eye surgery at advanced vision care on harley street. the care i received throughout was amazing. mr pillai was my surgeon and he took the time to answer all my questions (and there were many). the surgery was surprisingly quick and there was no pain, just a little discomfort. my vision is now better than 20/20!!! my only regret is that i just wish i had done it earlier.
