We offer personalised treatment built around your needs. Our experienced specialists will understand exactly what you need and will build a treatment plan for you.
We offer a diverse range of treatment options built around your needs, including:
Cataract surgery: We perform thousands of cataract removal operations each year.
Glaucoma services: These include trabeculectomy surgery, which treats glaucoma by draining out some of the fluid that has built up in your eye.
Laser eye surgery: Laser eye surgery aims to correct poor vision and either reduce or eliminate the need for glasses or contact lenses.
Lens exchange surgery: An alternative to laser eye surgery.
Squint surgery: To treat “squints”, which is a deviation of one eye so that both eyes are not entirely straight.

There are a number of eye problems that can affect your vision. Common eye conditions that you might need treatment for include:
Cataracts
Cataract occurs when cloudy patches form in your eye’s lens. It can become worse with time, but cataract surgery can improve your eyesight by replacing the damaged lens.
Glaucoma
This eye condition creates a build-up of fluid in the front part of your eye, which leads to increased eye pressure. The optic nerve that connects your eye to your brain also becomes damaged. Glaucoma surgery can prevent further damage to your optic nerve and worsening vision or vision loss.
Age-related macular degeneration (AMD)
There are two forms of macular degeneration: dry and wet.
Dry AMD is caused by a gradual deterioration of your macula (a part of your retina). Dry AMD is the most common and less serious type. It develops gradually when the light-sensitive cells in the macula slowly break down. Dry AMD can lead to loss of central vision, but it rarely causes complete blindness.
Wet AMD is the more serious type and affects around 10% of people with AMD. In wet AMD, the macula becomes damaged and new blood vessels start to grow behind the macula. Wet AMD can cause you to lose central vision in weeks. All people with the wet type had the dry type first.
Myopia (short-sightedness), hyperopia (long-sightedness) and astigmatism
These eye problems can cause blurred vision. Hyperopia affects your ability to see objects that are close to you, while myopia impacts your ability to see objects at a further distance.
Diabetic retinopathy
Diabetic retinopathy is a diabetic eye disease that involves damage to the retina (the light-sensitive area at the back of the eye). High blood sugar levels can damage the tiny blood vessels in the retina, which can break, bleed and leak fluid.

During cataract surgery, the cataract is removed and the cloudy, natural lens in your eye is replaced with a clear, artificial lens.Glaucoma surgery
Glaucoma surgery (a trabeculectomy) reduces pressure in your eye by draining the fluid from your eye. Your eye surgeon will create a small hole in the lining of your sclera (the white of your eye) to drain this fluid.Eye injections for AMD
Injections can be used to treat wet age-related macular degeneration (AMD). These contain drugs that are injected into your eye to prevent or slow the growth of the abnormal blood vessels that cause wet AMD.YAG laser capsulotomy
YAG laser capsulotomy is a laser procedure that can quickly restore vision following posterior capsule opacification.Laser eye surgery
If you have myopia, hyperopia or astigmatism, laser eye surgery can improve your vision by allowing your eyes to focus better. LASIK and LASEK are two common types of laser eye surgery. These use lasers to reshape your cornea (the front surface of your eyes).
