5 Star Treatment, From Start To Finish

Optegra Eye Hospital was born in 2007, with the vision of providing truly outstanding eye health care for every patient.

Since then, we have grown nationwide and now have over 18 dedicated eye hospitals and clinics in the UK.

More importantly, since then we have treated over a million patients and helped them to live a better life – and see each day in glorious high definition.

Our singular focus on eye health care and consultant-led approach means we deliver the right treatment for every patient. You’re assured the best calibre of laser eye surgery, cataract surgery, lens replacement surgery (Clarivu) and medical eye treatments – all performed to the highest clinical standards.

What Makes Us Unique?

As an independent healthcare provider, we are in a privileged position of being able to assist people with the highest standards of medical care as we work together to restore individuals’ vision which in turn can improve so much more – lifestyle, confidence, independence and joy. We see this happening every day in our hospitals and we are incredibly proud to be able to achieve this.

And we do not take this responsibility lightly.

We constantly review our services and medical outcomes, develop partnerships with the nation’s leading consultant ophthalmologists, nursing staff and optometrists and support NHS Trusts.

We also invest in the latest technologies, provide training both within Optegra and to external colleagues throughout the industry and fuel research projects to always attain the highest standards of treatment within eye healthcare.
