Mr David Schultz

I am a Consultant Ophthalmic Surgeon and the Clinical Lead at the Benenden Hospital Eye Unit.

Completing my initial ophthalmic training in Australia, I then undertook clinical fellowships in vitreoretinal surgery at both St Thomas' Hospital and Moorfields Eye Hospital in London.

I have been the joint Lead of Vitreoretinal Surgery at East Kent Hospital NHS University Foundation Trust for the past 15 years.

As a visiting lecturer at the University of Kent, I am involved in researching new methods of visualizing structures in the eye to detect disease.

I am a former meeting chair of the British and Eire Association of Vitreoretinal Surgeons.
