Dr Sheeraz Janjua is the highest and most reviewed Optometrist in the UK. He is well respected by both clinical colleagues and patients alike. He is a Fellow of the College of Optometrists, Doctor of Optometry and the Director of John Flynn Opticians, O'Brien's Opticians, Burrows & Wozencroft Opticians, and Gray & Bull.
He has over 27 years of experience in optometry, with specialist expertise in complex spectacle prescriptions, Dry AMD, Dry Eye Disease, medical retina, glaucoma, low-vision, sport vision and paediatric eye care, including myopia management. He is dedicated to providing the highest quality eye care to his patients. Dr Janjua was one of the first optometrists in the UK to offer photomedicine in the form of 'Photobiomodulation' for Dry AMD and Low-Level Light Therapy (LLLT) alongside Intense Pulsating Light (IPL) for Dry Eye disease. His special interests also include diagnosing and treating Binocular Vision Dysfunction (BVD) with prismatic lenses (prisms).
