About Dr. Elias Fares Jarade (ID*)
Dr. Elias Jarade is an ophthalmologist trained at Harvard Medical School with two fellowships in cornea and refractive surgery. He brings 10 years of clinical and research experience in cornea care, cataract surgery, refractive procedures, and corneal transplants. Based at Mediclinic Dubai, he is a certified trainer in IntraLase technology and a pioneer of IntraLASIK surgery.
He specializes in the most advanced refractive corrections, including IntraLASIK with CustomVue (the same procedure approved for astronauts), and is recognized for major contributions to keratoconus treatment through intracorneal ring segments and corneal collagen crosslinking. Dr. Jarade has invented two formulas—Jarade's formula and Jarade's method—for measuring corneal power after LASIK surgery, and developed novel techniques for high myopia and thin cornea cases. He is also credited with discovering a new treatment for advanced DLK (diffuse lamellar keratitis).
He is a good fit for patients seeking specialized refractive correction, complex cornea care, or keratoconus management from a surgeon with significant innovation in the field.
Special interests: IntraLASIK and CustomVue procedures, keratoconus treatment innovation, corneal power measurement after refractive surgery, high myopia and thin cornea correction.
