I had a eyelid operation with Mr Tahir Farooq. My Entropion was fully corrected and now my eye does not water and irritate anymore. I would highly recommend him to anyone.

I had left Endo DCR surgery under Mr Tahir Farooq. I had crusting and watering in the left eye all the time. I had a massive lump that appeared with an infection. My problem has been resolved by the surgery undertaken by Mr Tahir Farooq and would be happy to recommend him.

Mr Farooq was pleasant, gave a clear explanation of my blepharitis and MGD diagnosis and easy instructions on how to treat it. I was also given a care leaflet with easy to follow instructions. Definitely recommend. Thank you.
