National experts in cataract surgery

Most cataract surgeons in the UK perform 300-400 cataract operations each year. Vision Scotland surgeons perform 2000 cataract operations each year and are recognised national experts in their field. As a result of this they are often asked to treat patients whose cataracts are high risk/complex/advanced cases which carry a longer surgical time, a higher risk of complications and additional surgery, and which require their expertise for the best chances of a good outcome.

If you require ‘complex’ surgery your additional fee and the clinical issue will be discussed with you at your first consultation.

In general, the best candidates for laser eye surgery are people who:

Early treatment

Please note that cataracts are no different from any other health condition. early treatment means safer surgery, easier surgery and quicker surgery. early treatment also means a smoother recovery, less time spent struggling with worsening cataracts, and more years spent enjoying the results. there is also good evidence that early cataract surgery reduces falls, fractures, depression, insomnia and social functioning.
