About Jesse Panthagani
Consultant Ophthalmologist specialising in cataract, corneal and laser eye surgery. Over two decades of experience, outstanding outcomes, and an unhurried, patient-led approach.
Four quiet principles.
The working philosophy behind every case.
Every patient's journey consultant led.
Assessment, planning, surgery and follow-up — the same surgeon from first call to final review. No handovers, no surprises.
Evidence over enthusiasm.
I recommend the lens, the laser or the lens-exchange that the research supports for your eye — not the latest thing a vendor is promoting this quarter.
Say no when no is right.
Not everyone benefits from surgery. If your eye will do better with glasses, contacts or watchful waiting, that’s what we’ll do.
Teaching keeps the craft sharp.
I lecture UK trainees and contribute to international research — the same scrutiny I’d want from the surgeon operating on my own family.
