Zag Sharif

Principal Optometrist

Zag has been resident with us since 2006. He has a specialist interest in the development of children’s vision and Diabetic Eye Disease (both his parents are diabetic!). He was accredited for Diabetic Eye Disease screening in 2007 and since then his further training has meant we are also part of a local Glaucoma and Cataract scheme, with strong links to local eye hospitals, namely RVI Newcastle & Sunderland Eye Infirmary. His expertise, ambition, approach to patient care and commitment to his work has been a major factor in our success & growth.

We recognise how important it is for our Optometrists to have the time to properly assess your vision and the health of your eyes, as well as discuss your visual needs and any other concerns you may have. The same goes for when choosing your glasses; our Dispensing Opticians need time to get to know you and understand your lifestyle, in order to best recommend the frame and lens combination most suitable for your needs.
