Comprehensive Eye Treatment Options for Vision Preservation and Restoration
At London Eye & Retina, we offer a wide range of medical, surgical, and laser treatments for patients with eye conditions affecting clarity, comfort, and visual function. Whether you’re seeking clearer vision through laser correction, managing a retinal condition, or addressing an urgent eye injury, our approach is always tailored, built on evidence, experience, and empathy.
Our services are grouped into four key areas to meet the diverse needs of our patients:
Cataract Care and Surgery
Cataracts are one of the most common age-related eye conditions, causing clouding of the natural lens and blurry vision. When vision begins to interfere with daily life, surgery may be recommended to restore clarity.
We offer:
- Cataract Surgery - Removal of the cloudy lens and implantation of a clear artificial intraocular lens (IOL), often performed as a day procedure.
- Cataract + Glaucoma Surgery - Combined surgery for patients who require cataract removal and pressure-lowering treatment for glaucoma in the same setting.
- Cataract + Retinal Surgery - For patients with coexisting retinal conditions such as epiretinal membrane or diabetic eye disease, we offer coordinated procedures to address both issues efficiently.
Vision Correction
Modern refractive surgery allows many patients to reduce their dependence on glasses or contact lenses. We provide a range of laser and lens-based solutions for different eye shapes, prescriptions, and lifestyles.
Options include:
- LASIK - Laser reshaping of the cornea for eligible patients with stable refractive errors.
- SMILE Pro - A minimally invasive, flapless laser vision correction technique for myopia and astigmatism.
- TransPRK - A surface-based, no-touch procedure suitable for patients with thinner corneas or active lifestyles.
- Implantable Contact Lens (ICL) - An alternative to laser surgery, involving the placement of a small lens inside the eye for high myopia or dry eyes.
- Presbyopia Treatment (老花眼) - Solutions for age-related difficulty with near vision, including multifocal lenses, monovision correction, and refractive lens exchange.
All vision correction options are selected based on detailed eye assessments and suitability testing.
Retina & Macula Treatments
Diseases of the retina and macula can affect central or peripheral vision, sometimes progressing without symptoms. Early detection and tailored intervention are essential.
We provide diagnosis and management for:
- Age-related Macular Degeneration (AMD) - Wet and dry types, monitored and treated with anti-VEGF injections or observation.
- Diabetic Retinopathy & Macular Edema - Managed with imaging, laser, intravitreal therapy, or vitrectomy as needed.
- Epiretinal Membrane & Macular Hole - Surgical repair using micro-incision vitrectomy for vision distortion or central vision loss.
- Retinal Detachment & Tears - Urgent surgery to reattach the retina and seal tears before permanent vision loss occurs.
- Retinal Vascular Disorders - Includes central/branch retinal vein occlusion (CRVO/BRVO) and artery occlusion (CRAO/BRAO), which may require imaging, injections, or laser treatment.
- Retinitis Pigmentosa & Hereditary Retina Conditions - Genetic counselling and monitoring for progressive conditions that affect night and peripheral vision.
Emergency & Trauma Care
Sudden eye injuries and exposures require immediate attention to prevent long-term complications. We provide same-day assessment and treatment for:
- Eye Injuries - Including corneal abrasions, blunt trauma, and internal eye damage.
- Chemical & Thermal Burns - Prompt irrigation, medication, and monitoring to protect the eye surface and deeper structures.
- Foreign Body Removal - From metal, wood, or glass particles, performed safely under magnification and anaesthesia.
- Industrial Eye Injuries - Including high-velocity trauma or workplace-related accidents, with documentation and follow-up as required.
