Mr Aris Konstantopoulos

MB ChB, MSc, FRCOphth, PhD

Mr Aris Konstantopoulos is a Consultant Eye Surgeon at University Hospital Southampton NHS Foundation Trust, where he specialises in treatments of the cornea, corneal surgery and cataract surgery.

Aris graduated from the University of Glasgow in 1999 and completed his core ophthalmology training in hospitals of the Oxford and Wessex Deaneries. This was followed by 2 years of advanced training on ‘Cornea and external eye disease’ at University Hospital Southampton.

Appreciating the importance of ophthalmic imaging in improving the diagnosis and treatment of conditions of the cornea, Aris then carried out novel research on imaging of the cornea with optical coherence tomography at the University of Southampton. His research led to the award of a PhD degree.

Following this, Aris subspecialised further by carrying out a ‘Fellowship in Cornea and Refractive surgery’ at the Singapore National Eye Centre and Singapore Eye Research Institute, one of the most prestigious and influential eye institutions in the world. He was taught refractive surgery by pioneers of Laser Vision Correction and SMILE, including Professors Donald Tan and Jod Mehta, and conducted research on new applications of femtosecond lasers. Aris remains an honorary research fellow at the Singapore Eye Research Institute. He currently lectures on Vision Sciences at the University of Portsmouth. 

Aris lives with his wife and son by the water on the south coast and relaxes in the sun playing with his son.

An absolute dream
Aris and team made the whole procedure from start to finish an absolute dream. All questions answered in a language that anyone could understand, more detail given when requested. Calming even during the procedure. Appointments ran fairly late, so could go outside of work hours and travel. Everything was efficient, didn't have to chase, they handled all the faff around COVID like champs. Don't forget to enter your reg number on arrival to the hospital though!

My whol experience has been superb
I am today the morning after having completed presbyond surgery and I am absolutely delighted. The actual surgery was nothing to worry about and is completely pain free. I have spent my first night with slightly fuzzy vision and mildly gritty eyes but this really was the only side effect. This morning I opened my eyes to vision better than I can ever remember and on having my first check with Mr. Anderson it was confirmed I have 20/20 vision.

The ‘Gold Standard’ of laser eye surgery
Mr David Anderson is one of the leading Consultant Ophthalmologists which is why I chose him to perform my surgery. During the consultation I was very much assured that I was in good hands, but also having the ‘Gold Standard’ of laser eye surgery. It was explained that my best option was LASEK due to an eye infection rendering me contact lens intolerant. This also left me with a slightly reduced tear film... read more.

I wish I hadn't waited so long
Following an injury to my cornea that never healed properly, I had phototherapeutic keratectomy. At all stages I have had the chance to ask plenty of questions and have been given balanced information. The procedure itself was done with great efficiency and professionalism from both the medical and nursing staff. Aftercare has also been good and I am entirely satisfied. I only wish I hadn't waited so long to have it done!

Cannot recommend enough
The process was completely painless and quick. Any concerns you have to do with treatment whether it be the treatment itself, the aftercare... Dr Anderson will explain in detail and with patience. Also your are looked after so well by the nurses just before and after your treatment, they honestly couldn't do more to help you feel comfortable and relaxed. You are booked in for follow up treatments after your surgery and you feel like they really do care about how your eyes are and how much better your vision is, which is an incredible difference ,you feel like you aren't just a customer who they want in and out.

I have been thoroughly impressed
I have been thoroughly impressed with the level of care and professionalism that Aris and his team have shown at all stages in the process. The initial assessment, the procedure itself and then follow-up consultations. Although this was something that I approached with much trepidation I am really happy with the way that it ended up and the path that I followed.
