Mr I K Jalili FRCS, DO, FRCophth

| | I am a fully accredited consultant
ophthalmic surgeon on the GMC Specialists Register. I have thirty years
experience in the provision of medico-legal reports spanning my career. As
an expert witness, I cover both personal injuries and medical negligence.
My training in ophthalmology was preceded by four year training in
non-ophthalmic surgical rotations which included accident and emergency,
orthopaedics, general, cardio-thoracic, neuro and plastic surgery; all at
teaching hospitals. This has enabled me to offer a multi-disciplinary
approach and expertise to my clinical judgement and medico-legal work
including medical negligence.
My ophthalmic training was in leading teaching hospitals in Cardiff, Sheffield and London teaching hospitals. It
also included part-time fellowships in diabetic retinopathy (at the Retinal
Diagnostic Unit) and glaucoma at the Glaucoma Unit at Moorfields Eye
Hospital in addition to a three-month full-time course in neurology and neuro-ophthalmology
at the National Hospital for Neurology, Queen Square.
My experience in ocular trauma and knowledge of a wide range of rare pathologies
were greatly enhanced by working
abroad at the Eye Specialist Hospital in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia and the St John’s
Ophthalmic Hospital, Jerusalem. In the latter I also set up a prevention
programme for childhood blindness.
Following a period of research preparing for an MD, I completed 6 months
training at the Professorial Unit of Moorfields Eye Hospital which
focused on cataract and anterior segment and included training at the Cornea
and Oncology Clinics
My practice as an ophthalmic surgeon in anterior segment surgery focused on
cataract and with special clinics in paediatric ophthalmology, diabetic eye
disease and glaucoma. I also pioneered a community based screening
programmes for diabetic retinopathy in North Cheshire.
In terms of academic and managerial responsibilities, I held the position of
departmental tutor for the Royal College of Ophthalmologists and an Audit Lead.
I was also responsible for preparing a regional audit on the Cataract
Treatment Centre in North Wales funded by the Welsh Office.
In addition to my clinical work, I continue my involvement in ophthalmic
research. I have discovered and published a wide range of previously
unrecognised new conditions among them the internationally recognised
‘Jalili Syndrome’. The causative gene was found this year. On the latter, I
am working in affiliation with the Ophthalmology Molecular Genetics Unit of
Leeds University at St James’s Teaching Hospital which is undertaking a
specially funded research programme on bio-mineralisation based on the
Jalili syndrome. My work has also helped to establish new inroads in
medico-legal, forensic medicine and paternity cases in the findings that
members of inbred communities share identical patterns making DNA
fingerprinting less reliable as a test. More detailed information on my
experience is available on the website
www.jalili.co.uk including the above
book.
In addition to above I am involved in advising, as an elected local
government councillor, on hospital development, health standards and
scrutiny.
