OKYO Pharma shares took a battering last week but investors might soon be on the receiving end of some welcome news.
Earlier this month, American eye surgeon Dr James Khodabakhsh joined the firm’s scientific advisory board as chairman. He is head of the Cedars-Sinai clinic in Beverly Hills, Los Angeles, which treats Hollywood stars and directors as well as popular singers.
Now City sources say the company - which is developing a treatment for dry eye - might see another high-profile healthcare scientist join in the next few weeks.
The new recruit is said to be the award-winning inventor of two drugs that generated sales of more than $11 billion.
