Our highly experienced ophthalmologists combine extensive specialist surgical experience with compassionate, patient-centred care. Your sight is our priority, and we are here to support you at every step of your health journey. A referral from your GP or optometrist is all you need to begin.
Our approach
Eastwood Eye Surgery is a trusted, specialist ophthalmology practice providing specialist diagnosis and treatment for a broad range of eye conditions. We care for patients with cataracts, glaucoma, and retinal or eyelid conditions.
To ensure you receive a high standard of medical care, we review your referral immediately. We match you directly with the surgeon whose advanced subspecialty training best fits your specific diagnosis. From day one, your vision is in experienced, specialist hands.
Your referral goes straight to the ideal specialist for your first appointment, eliminating unnecessary general triage delays.
We only recommend surgery when it is truly the right step for your vision, your lifestyle, and your long-term well-being.
We collaborate closely with your referring GP and optometrist, keeping them fully informed to ensure continuous, unified care.
All of your consultations, advanced testing, and follow-up care take place right here in the comfort of our Eastwood rooms.
What we treat
Your eyesight is precious, and our surgeons are dedicated to protecting it with a blend of advanced clinical skill and genuine empathy. We manage all types of vision changes, from gradual conditions that develop over decades to sudden issues requiring prompt attention.
Many patients visit us after a routine check-up with their optometrist or GP revealed a change in their vision. Others come to us because of a specific concern or a sudden shift in their eyesight.
Some conditions, like cataracts, develop gradually and are comfortably managed when the time is right for you. Other conditions, like glaucoma, can progress quietly without early warning signs, making regular, professional monitoring essential even when your sight feels stable.
Please Note: Conditions such as wet macular degeneration or sudden retinal changes are highly time-sensitive. If you notice sudden changes in your vision, or experience new floaters or flashes of light, please contact your GP or optometrist promptly for an urgent referral.

Eye Anatomy
A closer look at how your eye works.
Hover over or tap any number on the diagram to read about that part of your eye.
The cornea is the clear front window of the eye. Light passes through it first, and its curve does most of the focusing before light reaches the lens.
The conjunctiva is the thin, clear membrane covering the white of the eye. It keeps the surface moist and protected.
The iris is the coloured ring at the front of the eye. It widens and narrows the pupil to control how much light reaches the back of the eye.
The ciliary body sits behind the iris. It changes the shape of the lens so you can focus, and makes the fluid inside the eye.
The lens sits just behind the pupil and fine-tunes focus onto the retina. It is the part that clouds over when a cataract develops.
The vitreous humour is the clear, gel-like substance filling the back chamber of the eye, helping it hold its round shape.
The retina lines the back of the eye and turns light into the signals your brain reads as vision. The macula at its centre gives you sharp, detailed sight.
The choroid is the layer of blood vessels between the retina and the outer wall of the eye. It supplies the retina with oxygen and nutrients.
The sclera is the tough white outer wall of the eye. It holds the eye's shape and protects everything inside it.
The optic nerve carries signals from the retina to the brain. It is the nerve affected in glaucoma, which is why eye pressure is checked so carefully.
Our Procedures
We believe in tailored medicine, not a one-size-fits-all approach. Your recommended treatment plan will depend entirely on your specific diagnosis, the stage of your condition, and your overall health. Our surgeons take the time to explain every option clearly so you can feel confident in your care.
Day-procedure removal of the clouded lens, replaced with a clear artificial lens tailored to your vision goals.
Targeted medication for retinal conditions such as wet AMD and diabetic eye disease.
Surgical management of retinal conditions, delivered by our subspecialist retinal surgeons.
Precise laser procedures for a range of conditions, including glaucoma and after-cataract clouding.
Procedures to address eyelid conditions affecting comfort, appearance, or your field of vision.
Advanced removal of growths on the eye's surface, with techniques to minimise recurrence.

Your Journey
We understand that it is entirely natural to feel anxious about an eye appointment, especially if your vision has changed. We aim to make each visit calm, reassuring, and unhurried, giving you the time and space to digest information. If you wish, you are most welcome to bring a family member or carer along for support.
Your first appointment is a consultation, not surgery. Your surgeon will review your history, examine your eyes and explain what has been found.
Outcomes vary from person to person, and your surgeon will discuss what is realistic for you before planning any treatment.
