In 1995, Dr. Daya, who is the Medical Director of Centre for Sight, was amongst the first to perform the LASIK laser vision correction procedure in the UK and became a well-known trainer of the procedure. Dissatisfied with the limitations of eye care provision in private hospitals, he felt compelled to establish a “Centre for Excellence” intended to provide patients world class personalized medical and surgical eye care, as well as to set the standards for laser eye surgery.
Anticipating refractive surgery would become a popular procedure, it was important to him that
the centre became a leading authority in any matter concerning the cornea and front of the eye. Mr.
Daya founded Centre for Sight in 1996 and under his leadership and expertise, Centre for Sight has grown and now has 3 locations.
Under Mr. Daya’s leadership, Centre for Sight has an outstanding reputation and continues to lead the UK in advances in technology and eye care. Dr. Daya has pioneered a number of techniques and has been involved in the area of limbal stem cell transplantation and tissue engineering with outcomes being reported in the international press and peer-reviewed literature. Most noticeably, he has been revealed in a TV documentary “The Science of Seeing Again” as the surgeon who restored the sight of Katie Piper, the celebrity whose vision was damaged in an acid attack.
