"One of the most rewarding parts of my work is seeing patients enjoy clearer vision again. I always take the time to listen, explain things in plain language and make sure you feel comfortable with every decision about your eyes."
— Dr Behrad Samadi

Training

Dr Samadi's training took him from Stockholm to London:

MD, Karolinska Institutet, Stockholm
Residency in Ophthalmology, St Erik Eye Hospital, Stockholm
Glaucoma Fellowship, Moorfields Eye Hospital, London
Fellow of the European Board of Ophthalmology (FEBO)

During his residency at St Erik Eye Hospital he cared for patients with a wide range of eye conditions and took part in research and teaching. His fellowship at Moorfields focused on diagnosing and treating glaucoma, a condition that can threaten sight if it is not managed well.

Research

Dr Samadi has written several publications in scientific journals, presented at international ophthalmology congresses, and co-authored a chapter in a book on glaucoma.

Treatments and Procedures

Dr Samadi provides:

Cataract surgery, performed in-clinic under local anaesthesia, with monofocal, toric and EDOF/multifocal lens options
Glaucoma surgery, including minimally invasive glaucoma surgery (MIGS)
Pterygium surgery
Laser treatment for a range of eye conditions
Management of macular degeneration and diabetic retinopathy

Every patient's eyes and needs are different, so Dr Samadi takes time to explain the options and build a treatment plan around each person.

Outside the Clinic

Away from work, Dr Samadi loves spending time with his family and showing his daughters new experiences, especially in the kitchen, where you will often find them cooking and baking together. He also enjoys pickleball, tennis and travelling, which help him recharge and stay connected with the world around him.
