About Dr Piero Zollet

Dr Piero Zollet is a board-certified eye surgeon who works as a consultant ophthalmologist specialised in glaucoma and cataract.

He graduated in Medicine and Surgery from the University Vita-Salute San Raffaele in Milan.

He completed his general ophthalmology training at Humanitas University, Milan, where he gained wide experience in diagnosing and treating all types of eye conditions.

Dr Zollet then spent a year at Bristol Eye Hospital in the UK, focusing on conditions affecting the eyelids, eye sockets (orbits), and tear ducts. He later completed a two-year glaucoma fellowship at the University Hospital of Wales in Cardiff, developing advanced expertise in
glaucoma management and complex cataract surgery.

He performs both routine and advanced cataract operations and offers a wide range
of treatments for glaucoma and eyelid conditions.

Dr Zollet is trained in the latest minimally invasive glaucoma surgeries (MIGS) and minimally invasive bleb surgery (MIBS) —including iStent, Hydrus, Elios excimer laser trabeculoplasty, OMNI ab interno trabeculotomy, and Preserflo microshunt — which can help reduce eye pressure with faster recovery times.

He also performs glaucoma laser treatments, specifically: selective laser trabeculoplasty (SLT), YAG laser iridotomy and capsulotomy, and cyclodiode therapy.

For advanced or complex glaucoma, he provides highly specialised procedures such as trabeculectomy and glaucoma drainage device implantation.

Dr Zollet is known for his patient-focused approach, taking time to explain every treatment option clearly and provide personalised care for each individual’s needs.

Following my trabeculectomy I have had numerous follow up appointments with Dr Zollet. He has been so kind and given me confidence as I navigate this period. He has answered my questions with patience (regardless of how daft they were) and helped me to understand what I can and can't do in order to heal. On this visit, following all checks, he has told me I can more or less go back to normal (though no swimming!) I have another appointment in 4 weeks to check that everything is still ok.

I had an excellent experience with my eye surgeon. From the first consultation through the procedure and follow-up appointments, they were professional, knowledgeable, and genuinely caring. They took the time to explain everything clearly, answered all of my questions, and made me feel comfortable throughout the entire process. The surgery went smoothly, and my recovery has been better than I expected. I’m very grateful for the outstanding care and expertise I received. I highly recommend this surgeon to anyone looking for exceptional eye care. Thank you for helping improve my vision and my quality of life!

I recently visited the University of Wales hospital, eye clinic in Cardiff, for my routine appointment following cataract surgery. The doctor had to carry out some tests to check my eyes. He communicated the results of each test in a very clear and precise manner. I understood what was going on and I was reassured about the outcome. Excellent communicator and good attention to detail.
