Glasgow patients are seen at the Belfast clinic in Malone — a one-hour flight from Glasgow Airport and often the fastest consultant appointment available.
NHS Scotland routine ophthalmology waits have lengthened considerably, and premium intraocular lenses are not funded. Glasgow patients come to us for lens choice as much as for speed.
