Dr Hassan Oulehri, eye surgeon in Fez

Dr Hassan Oulehri is an ophthalmologist and eye surgeon in Fez, Morocco. A specialty graduate of the Hassan II University Hospital in Fez, he has made anterior segment microsurgery the heart of his practice: cataract surgery by phacoemulsification, refractive surgery (LASIK, PRK, phakic ICL implants) and the management of keratoconus (cross-linking, intracorneal ring segments, topography-guided PRK and scleral lenses).

A career marked by scientific rigor

His doctoral thesis, defended with the highest honors and the congratulations of the jury, focused on optimizing cataract surgery (based on 1,000 cases). He then completed his training in major French university hospital departments, where he earned three university diplomas: contact lens fitting (University of Versailles–Saint-Quentin, Prof. Christophe Baudouin), ocular surface disorders (University of Tours, Prof. P.-J. Pisella) and retinal imaging and macular treatments (University of Paris-Est Créteil, Prof. Eric Souied).

Research and conferences

Author of publications in the Journal Français d’Ophtalmologie and of more than thirty scientific presentations — nineteen of which were awarded first place at national and international conferences — he presented his work for four consecutive years at the congress of the French Society of Ophthalmology in Paris, as well as at the World Ophthalmology Congress 2018. Details are on the page Publications & bibliography.
