About me
Mr Sachin Patel BSc MCOptom MBCLA DipTp(IP) Prof Cert Paediatric Eye Care Prof Cert Glaucoma Prof Cert Medical Retina
Consultant Optometrist and owner of Safarian and Simon Opticians in St. Johns Wood.
I am responsible for resolving the eye health problems, complex prescriptions and contact lenses fitting of my patients. My ability to problem-solve comes from my attention to patient needs. I use both my clinical skills and listening ability to build great relationships with my patients.
I have an active interest in spectacle lens dispensing; this has served my patients well as I can recommend spectacle lenses to suit a patient’s needs during the eye examination.
I have developed specialist clinical skills working alongside Consultant Ophthalmologists on Harley Street, Wimpole Street, and The Hospital of St Johns and St Elizabeth. Owing to my extensive clinical knowledge I am able to refer our patients to the most appropriate medical professional.
I am also an Independent Prescriber to treat eye diseases and infections, Registered Minor Eye Conditions Service Provider, and I specialise in Paediatric Vision Care and Glaucoma.
I am proud to be one of the few optometrists who has completed above-requirement post-graduate university education in my field and regularly practice these skills and qualifications supported by our gold-standard equipment including Optomap ultra-wideview retinal scans, Spectralis OCT from Heidelberg, Anterior OCT and Visionix contactless ultrasonic anterior scans. We offer advanced Dry eye treatment with plugs, Intense pulse light, MG expression, Zest/ BlephEx , Low light level therapy and Meibomian Gland Probing.
I also fit Amniotic Membrane contact lenses for corneal healing and complex contact lens fitting for Keratoconus.
