I had double vision that was getting increasingly worse. I have to admit that I was sceptical about what could be achieved and Mr Ali was always honest with me about potential results. The outcome is amazing. After years of increasing prisms (+16) I now manage without. It really has been truly transformative . Wish I’d known about this clinic years ago. Can’t praise them highly enough.

It’s hard to find the words to express how deeply grateful I am to Dr Ali for his skill in curing my severe double vision. When my problem became bad enough to affect my confidence and restrict my active lifestyle, I researched ‘double vision surgery’ and found the London Squint Clinic. I checked out Dr Ali’s credentials with a local optician (I live in the North East of England) and was told “if anyone can sort out your double vision, it is Nadeem Ali”. I then had a couple of video consultations with Dr Ali; initially he wasn’t sure whether he could help me, but after seeing my test results and measurements he decided he could. He didn’t over-promise however, telling me that he thought he could correct 75% of my problem. That was enough to encourage me to book the first available surgery date. Because I live 270 miles away I booked myself into the hospital (Spire St Anthony’s) for a post-op overnight stay. The hospital was lovely and once I had met Dr Ali and the anaesthetist any nervousness disappeared. A few hours after surgery Dr Ali removed my bandage and I was excited to find that I had fantastic single vision! There was no pain, just an occasional dull ache for the first few days, after which recovery was straightforward. The pre- and post-op zoom calls, and access to Dr Ali on WhatsApp, meant that despite living hundreds of miles away I always felt connected and well cared for. I understand that I was one of Dr Ali’s more complicated cases, but thanks to his phenomenal skill and years of experience he was able to 95% cure my severe double vision. This man is the best! The results of surgery have far exceeded my expectations and I cannot recommend him highly enough! Pauline Gilbertson

Before deciding to have surgery, I was understandably nervous and uncertain. Eye surgery is not something you take lightly, but any concerns I had quickly disappeared after meeting Dr. Ali and his team. From my very first consultation, they were professional, reassuring and took the time to answer every question I had, leaving me feeling completely confident that I was in the best possible hands. The surgery itself was far more straightforward than I had imagined. In my case, everything went smoothly, and I was able to leave the clinic early that same afternoon. The results have exceeded my expectations. For many years I had been very self-conscious about my squint, particularly whenever photographs were taken. It was something I was always aware of and often tried to hide. Since the surgery, that self-consciousness has gone. It has genuinely changed how I feel about having my photograph taken and has given me a confidence I didn't expect to regain. What has impressed me just as much as the surgery itself has been the aftercare. Dr. Ali's support throughout my recovery was exceptional. Whenever I had a question or concern during the healing process, he responded incredibly quickly and was always reassuring. Knowing that level of support was there made the recovery much easier. I cannot thank Dr. Ali and everyone at the London Squint Clinic enough. My experience from start to finish has been outstanding, and I would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone considering squint surgery.
Absolutely amazing service from start to finish! Having had multiple previous surgery from a little child and countless years of trying through the NH...
Absolutely amazing service from start to finish! Having had multiple previous surgery from a little child and countless years of trying through the NHS and private for further review with always a negative outcome. I finally took the plunge to contact Dr Ali & team and completely amazed by the results! The customer service, kindness and support I’ve received was second to none and I couldn’t have wished for a better outcome! Even with having to move my surgery date due to illness, nothing was too much trouble and it was resolved extremely quickly with a new date! I can’t thank the team enough especially DR Ali for the compassion and outcome! Highly recommended!

Hi Olivia! Thank you so much for this INCREDIBLE review. It made me feel very emotional reading it — I don't think it's dramatic at all. You've been through a huge ordeal with your eyes! To have both squint and double vision and go through all the hoops to loops to try fix it to no avial. I can't even begin to imagine how taxing and stressful that would have been over the years and decades. I'm so happy you found Mr Ali and he was able to provide such huge improvements to your eyes and your quality of life. It's truly remarkable and should be celebrated!

Wow, Penny! Thank you so much for your thoughtful and thorough review.

Thank you for choosing and trusting us to help you. All the best for your squint-free future. Kind regards, Jacinda and the LSC team!

We understand squint
Meeting new people. Work presentations. Having photos taken. These are just some of the situations where a squint can hold you back.
You constantly worry about what people think of your eyes. On the outside, you may seem confident, but inside, your self-esteem has suffered for years. And for some, there’s the added weight of childhood teasing that never quite fades.
Nobody truly understands the emotional burden of a squint except the person living with it. Friends and family might say it’s nothing, but deep down, you know it affects you every single day. We hear this from our patients all the time—and we understand.
Squint surgery isn’t for anyone else. It’s for you. A chance to look in the mirror and feel good about what you see. A chance to regain confidence in every interaction. Book an appointment today and take the first step toward a life-changing transformation.
We understand double vision
Seeing two of everything. Constant blur and defocus. Objects from the side appearing in the center of your vision. Struggling with distances, steps, and everyday tasks. Unable to drive. Unable to enjoy the sports you love.
You’re tired of relying on costly prism glasses that only seem to get stronger every year. You just want the freedom of clear, single vision again.
We hear from our patients how double vision has taken over their lives, turning even the simplest tasks into daily struggles. And because there’s often nothing visible to others, no one truly understands what you’re going through.
Only those living with double vision know how life-changing it would be to see clearly again. And that’s where we can help. Book an appointment today and take the first step toward restoring your vision—and your freedom.

Meeting new people. Work presentations. Having photos taken. Just some of the situations where a squint can hold you back.
A squint is when one or both or your eyes turns in the wrong direction. Some squints are too small to notice but many are visible to others. These can affect people’s self-confidence in many ways.
You constantly worry about what people think of your eyes. On the outside, you may seem confident, but inside, your self-esteem is low. Then there’s often the added weight of childhood bullying that never fades.

We understand double vision
Struggling with screens, judging distances, steps, and everyday tasks. Forced to give up driving. Can’t enjoy the sports or hobbies you love.
Patients tell us how double vision has taken over their lives, turning even the simplest tasks into daily struggles.
Double vision means seeing two images of things. Side by side, one above the other, or at an angle. Constant blur and defocus. Objects from the side appearing in the centre of your vision.
Maybe you’re tired of relying on costly prism glasses that only seem to get stronger every year. You just want the freedom of clear, single vision again.
Only those living with double vision know how life-changing it would be to see clearly again. And that’s where we can help.

Living with squint or double vision can really impact your life.

The rest is easy! At your appointment, Mr Ali will discuss your squint or double vision issues. He will answer any questions that you have.
You’ll leave knowing if you can finally have the surgery you want. A huge weight will be off your shoulders.


Enjoy your new life!
The number one thing we hear from our patients after surgery is:
“You have honestly changed my life.”
And the number two thing is:
“Why didn’t I have this done sooner?”
So bite the bullet and start your journey today!
Meet your surgeon
Mr Nadeem Ali is a world expert in the diagnosis and surgical treatment of Squint (Strabismus).
There are many eye surgeons who do mainly cataract and a bit of adult squint surgery on the side. There are many who do general ophthalmology for children and a bit of kids’ and adult squint surgery on the side.
But there are very few people in the world who specialise 100% in squint surgery in adults. Mr Ali does just that.
He holds the following degrees:
- MA – Triple First class (Cambridge). He was top of the year for 2 out of 3 years.
- MB BChir with distinction (Cambridge)

Hello, I’m Nadeem Ali
I’m one of the few eye surgeons in the world with 100% focus on Squint and Double Vision Surgery.
I have 24 years of eye surgery experience, and worked for 13 years as a Consultant at London’s renowned Moorfields Eye Hospital.
In 2023, I left the NHS to focus fully on treating patients from across the world at the London Squint Clinic. You can read more about me here.
There’s lots of information on the website about: squint surgery, double vision surgery and our pricing.
The most rewarding part of my job is hearing patients tell me how squint or double vision surgery has changed their lives. You can hear these stories here.
