Career
Khaw studied medicine at Southampton University Medical School (then sited at the Boldrewood Campus) and qualified in 1980. He subsequently joined Moorfields in 1987 and specialised in paediatric glaucoma (1989-1994), simultaneously preparing for his PhD in "ocular wound healing and advanced therapies to prevent scarring". He has perhaps the greatest experience in his field in the United Kingdom and he has developed techniques for glaucoma surgery that are now in worldwide use.
Khaw is Director of the National Institute of Health's Biomedical Research Centre at Moorfields, and University College London's Institute of Ophthalmology. He has raised more than £100 million for research and buildings including funding for the world’s largest Children's Eye Hospital and translational research clinical centre.
