About Anthony Khawaja

Associate Professor & Honorary Consultant Ophthalmic Surgeon, UCL Institute of Ophthalmology & Moorfields Eye Hospital, London, UK

If you weren’t an ophthalmologist…

I’d be in a band. I still dream of recording an album.

Do you have a controversial opinion?

I think I'm in the minority of people who do not think myopia contributes to the risk of glaucoma. I think the cross-sectional evidence is flawed and there is lacking evidence in progression studies. It is high pressure that causes myopia rather than vice versa!
