Eye surgery for patients in Oxford

Oxford patients travel a short distance down the A329/M4 to the Reading clinic — often quicker than crossing Oxford itself at peak times.

The Oxford Eye Hospital is a major tertiary centre, which means routine cataract and lens cases often sit behind complex referrals. Oxford patients choose private care to be seen and operated on by the same consultant within weeks.

Around 35 minutes by car via the A329(M), or a direct train from Oxford to Reading in about 25 minutes, with the clinic four minutes from the station.

Patients travel from: Summertown · Headington · Jericho · Botley · Abingdon · Didcot · Witney
