Professional statement
Mr Myer Mark Yodaiken is an experienced consultant ophthalmologist based in London and Manchester. With over 30 years of experience, Mr Yodaiken is an expert in the treatment of dry eye, blepharitis, macular degeneration (AMD), glaucoma, and diabetic retinopathy.
He qualified from the University of the Witwatersrand in South Africa, going on to complete specialist training as an ophthalmologist. He later moved to the United Kingdom, furthering his training in medical retina at Manchester Royal Eye Hospital and completing fellowships in anterior segment surgery and age-related macular degeneration. Mr Yodaiken worked at Stepping Hill Hospital from 2002 to 2007 as a consultant with a special interest in medical retina. He is a member of a number of esteemed ophthalmology associations, including the Royal College of Ophthalmologists, the American Academy of Ophthalmology, and the European Society of Cataract and Refractive Surgeons. Following a career in the NHS, he now sees patients privately at the Alexandra Hospital, The Harley Street Eye Centre, and in his own consulting rooms.
He specialises in the treatment of dry eyes, age-related macular degeneration (ARMD), and glaucoma, as well as being an expert on meibomian gland disease, a type of blepharitis. Mr Yodaiken’s ARMD patients benefit from a holistic approach, including not only monitoring using OCT photography and treatment with Avastin, Lucentis or Eylea; but also diet and lifestyle advice appropriate to the condition. His Dry Eyes clinic offers Lipiflow treatment, which is the best heat-based treatment for opening glands, evacuating oils, and kick-starting the glands again. He is also one of the few specialists in the UK who undertakes meibomian gland probing for patients with advanced meibomian gland dysfunction. Glaucoma patients are offered modern laser procedures to eliminate or reduce the need for long-term topical drop administration. He also offers surgery including modern shunts, as well as conventional glaucoma surgery.
Mr Yodaiken combines compassion and dedication with expert care. Driven by a genuine desire to help improve his patients’ eye health, he believes that every patient deserves the best, regardless of their age. Self-referrals are welcome.

I would highly recommend Mr Yodaiken. The quality of care was superb. I appreciated that Mr Yodaiken was able to tag me on to the end of his clinic with very little notice. He responded patiently, was thorough, and based recommendation on patient needs. Would highly recommend.
