Cataract surgery — performed by a cornea sub-specialist.
Modern phacoemulsification with intraocular lens (IOL) selection tailored to your visual lifestyle and ocular anatomy.

Why choose us
International standard. Regional access.
IOL chosen for your visual lifestyle
Office worker, professional driver, golfer, scuba diver — each lifestyle profile matches a different IOL. We map your visual habits before recommending a lens.
Cornea + cataract together
If you have Fuchs dystrophy, prior LASIK, keratoconus, or a previous corneal transplant, cataract surgery becomes more complex. Dr. Shaarawy is a sub-specialist in both fields.
Premium IOLs from Alcon, J&J, Zeiss
We import IOLs directly from the manufacturer with full traceability. EDOF, trifocal, and toric platforms all available — including the latest designs.
Insurance reports for international patients
We issue detailed clinical reports in English for international insurance providers. Many policies cover at least the monofocal portion of the cost.
