Miss Bhavna Sharma
Consultant Ophthalmic and Oculoplastic Surgeon
Miss Bhavna Sharma is a Consultant Ophthalmic and Oculoplastic Surgeon specialising in the care of the eyelids, tear ducts and surrounding facial tissues. She treats both functional and aesthetic concerns, including drooping or heavy eyelids, eyelid malposition, eyelid lesions, watery eyes and periocular ageing, alongside dry eye, meibomian gland dysfunction and blepharitis.
Bhavna completed her specialist ophthalmic training in Wales and undertook advanced fellowship training in oculoplastic, lacrimal and orbital surgery at University Hospital Southampton. She has worked as a consultant at Basingstoke Hospital and Dorset County Hospital. Her practice combines precise surgical assessment with a holistic understanding of each patient’s eye health, facial balance, wellbeing and personal goals. She takes time to create a detailed, bespoke treatment plan for every patient and also has a special interest in non-surgical aesthetics and skin rejuvenation.
“I treat every patient as I would wish to be treated: with warmth, honesty and compassion. My role is to listen carefully, understand the whole person and bring a detailed surgical eye to every decision, creating a bespoke plan that protects function, respects individuality and helps each patient feel confidently like their best self.” – Miss Bhavna Sharma

What specific expertise does Miss Bhavna Sharma bring to Sapphire Eye Care?
Bhavna brings a distinctive combination of ophthalmic expertise, reconstructive skill and aesthetic judgement. She understands that successful oculoplastic treatment should protect the eye and improve function while also seeking a balanced, natural and aesthetically pleasing result. Her approach is meticulous and highly personalised: she considers the eyelids, ocular surface, facial proportions, skin quality and the patient’s wider wellbeing before recommending treatment. Clear explanations and informed choice are central to her consultations, empowering patients to understand their eye health, compare appropriate options and make decisions with confidence.
What types of surgeries and treatments does Miss Bhavna Sharma specialise in?
Bhavna specialises in the management of dry eye, blepharitis, meibomian gland disease as well as upper and lower eyelid blepharoplasty; ptosis correction; entropion and ectropion repair; eyelid lesion and skin-cancer removal; periocular reconstruction using carefully selected flaps and skin grafts; eyelid trauma repair; and the assessment and surgical management of watery-eye and tear-duct disorders. She also offers non-surgical facial aesthetics and skin-rejuvenation treatments, together with botulinum toxin treatment for blepharospasm, hemifacial spasm and facial palsy-related asymmetry. Across both surgical and non-surgical care, her aim is to achieve results that feel natural, restore confidence and help patients look refreshed and feel like the best version of themselves.
What can patients expect when being treated by Miss Bhavna Sharma?
Patients can expect a warm, unhurried and thorough consultation in which their concerns are heard and their priorities are respected. Bhavna explains the diagnosis, realistic outcomes, alternatives and potential risks clearly, and never takes a one-size-fits-all approach. Each plan is individually tailored to the patient’s anatomy, eye health, lifestyle and desired outcome, with careful attention to both function and facial harmony. Her goal is for every patient to feel informed, supported and confident throughout their treatment journey, from the first consultation through recovery and follow-up.
