Editorial note: VERIFIED. Dedicated specialist eye hospital chain. Strong independent corroboration: Gulf News (major UAE newspaper) coverage, Practice Plus Group (UK) consultant listing for Dr. Arbabi, Dr. Arbabi's own independent practice site (drarbabi.com), Reddit patient report naming Dr. Morcillo, and Doctify. Dr. Arbabi confirmed CURRENT Medical Director and his RCOphth credential is authority-body verifiable. Email not published — null. One Reddit review raised a dry-eye-screening concern re: a refractive assessment (balanced, not a systemic red flag). Dr. Giledi corroborated via independent listings; Dr. Morcillo named only in Reddit → verified:false.
