Mr Damian Lake
Hi, I’m Damian
Consultant Ophthalmic Surgeon Cornea & Anterior Segment. Director & Co-Founder of The Sight Centre.
I have been a Consultant Ophthalmologist for 16 years, specialising in cataract surgery, refractive surgery, and corneal surgery.
My approach is unique because I tailor my treatment to each individual patient, taking the time to discuss their expectations, lifestyle and values to safely achieve their desired outcomes.
I treat cataracts, vision loss due to refractive errors, and presbyopia. I offer a range of advanced treatments and techniques, including cataract surgery, refractive lens exchange with premium lenses, laser vision correction, and implantable contact lenses.
Over the course of my career, I have carried out more than 20,000 procedures!


In addition to my medical degree and Fellowship of The Royal College of Ophthalmologists, I hold a postgraduate degree in Medical Law.
I’ve served as the Clinical Director at The Queen Victoria NHS Trust for over five years and have delivered international lectures to fellow surgeons and optometrists.
I’m an active member of several professional ophthalmic organisations, including the UK and Ireland Society of Cataract and Refractive Surgeons, the European Society of Cataract and Refractive Surgeons, the American Academy of Ophthalmology, and The Cornea Society.
