A leading figure in his field, Mr Masood was one of the first surgeons in the UK to utilise the iStent device, and has now completed more successful iStent implant procedures in complex glaucoma patients than any other doctor in the UK. Ever the pioneer, he continues to research, develop and refine these techniques.
Mr Masood trained at the prestigious Moorfields Eye Hospital in London and was awarded the Fellowship of the Royal College of Ophthalmologists.

Very professional and knowledgeable. I left feeling confident that he was excellent at his job and I was reassured that I would get the best care.

I have been seeing Mr Masood for several years with Glaucoma in both eyes. He has removed cataracts from both eyes when necessary with really excellent results. He is friendly (though perhaps a little reserved) and I would recommend him to others (as I have) without hesitation
