About | Dr Adib Moghaddam

Why Dr. Adib Moghaddam?

Dr. Adib Moghaddam started to practice Laser Vision Correction, in 1997, as the youngest Iranian Ophthalmologist and placed himself among the pioneers of Laser Refractive Surgery in Iran and the region.

During past years he has tried to keep pace with global scientific advances in the field of Ophthalmology and Refractive Surgery. In this regard he has done thousands of various refractive surgery, e.g. PRK, LASIK, LASEK, FEMTOLASIK and a novel method called “Trans-PRK”. Dr. Adib Moghaddam has passed several courses relevant to new scientific methods of Refractive Surgery and Optics in United States and Europe. Also he is the Iranian student of “Professor Ioannis Pallikaris” (The Father of LASIK) and has passed several courses in the field of “Refractive Surgery and Optics” with him. This scientific communication is still being continued.
