Meet Mr Glenn Carp – One of the UK’s Best Laser Eye Surgeons

treatment options laser eye surgery

At the London Vision Clinic, we have developed a world-renowned reputation as one of the best Laser Eye Surgery clinics in the UK – if not the world. This honourable position has been made possible by our amazing clinic staff and, of course, our experienced surgeons – including Mr. Glenn Carp.

A Varied Career in Ophthalmology

Over his career, Mr Glenn Carp has worked at a number of highly respected institutions. From his four-year specialist training registrar at Africa’s largest eye hospital to his position as an Ophthalmic Senior House Officer at Johannesburg Hospital.

After moving from his home country of South Africa to the UK, Glenn worked in several hospitals, including Worcester Royal Hospital, Preston Royal Hospital, Maidstone General Hospital, and The Western Eye Hospital in London. While working at The Western Eye Hospital, he was selected for a prestigious one-year fellowship in Cornea and Anterior Segment Pathology and Surgery.

He later joined the London Vision Clinic through an 18-month fellowship in 2005, having previously studied alongside our founder, Professor Dan Reinstein. Of course, his skills in the field and exceptional experience made an impression and he was offered a permanent position – and we’re thrilled he decided to stick around!

With over 20 years of experience under his belt, Glenn Carp has become known as one of the best Laser Eye Surgeons in the UK. In addition to his countless successful procedures, Glenn can boast multiple awards for research and performance. During his specialist registrar training, he received two awards: The Tetski Patterson Award for clinical research and the Elie Dahan Registrar of the Year award for outstanding performance.

But it’s not just people in the industry who appreciate his skill in the Laser Eye Surgery field.

Trusted by Colleagues

But Mr Glenn’s patients are more varied than you might have imagined. Having received Laser Eye Surgery treatment from our very own Professor Dan Reinstein in 2006, he was recently able to return the favour.

In 2018, he performed PRESBYOND® Laser Blended Vision to correct Dr Dan’s presbyopia! As you can imagine, the procedure went perfectly and Dr Dan was thrilled with the results. Today, both Professor Reinstein and Mr Carp are enjoying work and life, glasses-free, thanks to each other’s unrivalled expertise in the industry.
