Specialist cataract surgery is just one of a wide range of ophthalmic services available at any Abbey Hospital. The team of ophthalmic specialists and the dedicated nursing team provide a high quality of care.

We have readily available the necessary equipment to carry out modern cataract surgery. Sutureless, small incision surgery known as Phaco-emulsification is offered by all our consultants.

The Consultants

For details of consultants, please refer to the Abbey Hospital of your choice.

The Cost

A Fixed Price Surgery scheme is available for Cataract Surgery. The initial consultation ranges from £45 to £120. Please ask for full details.

How to make an appointment.

Whilst an initial appointment can be made with the consultant, a GP referral letter is also required. Your GP will send the letter of referral to the hospital. We will then arrange an appointment.
