My name is David Teenan. I am 43 years old and I am an Ophthalmologist with Optical Express.
I've been working with Optical Express for 7 years. I've been working with them full
time for 5 years and prior to that 2 years part time.
Before working with Optical Express I worked within the NHS. I trained as a Junior Doctor
in Glasgow and then did my higher surgical training in Wales before taking up a Consultant
Ophthalmology post at Ayr Hospital.
My role at Optical Express involves carrying out laser refractive surgery and intra-ocular
surgery. To date I have treated in excess of 12,000 patients. One of the advantages
to an Ophthalmologist working for Optical Express is that we have access to the latest
technology available. We also have an International Medical Advisory Board which is made up of
some of the leading names in refractive surgery in the world.
The most enjoyable part about working for Optical Express is getting to meet patients,
being able to change patient’s live. Patients come in wearing glasses and after a few minutes
they leave being able to see.
