Yes. Mr Mohamed Mohyudin (GMC 7039600) is a substantive NHS Consultant Ophthalmic Surgeon and double fellowship-trained specialist. He personally assesses you, performs your procedure at Spire Elland Hospital, and conducts all follow-up appointments — not a rotating team or anonymous clinic model.

Mr Mohyudin offers monofocal, toric (astigmatism-correcting), EDOF (extended depth of focus) and multifocal intraocular lenses — a wider range than routine NHS cataract surgery.
