Complex cataract surgery refers to procedures that involve additional challenges beyond the typical removal of a cloudy lens.
These challenges may include:
-
Severe/very dense cataracts
-
Previous eye surgeries (corneal transplants, retinal detachment surgeries, glaucoma operations)
-
Corneal irregularities or scarring
-
Glaucoma
-
Previous eye trauma
-
Other ocular conditions that complicate the surgical process.

Complex cataract surgery requires the expertise of experienced surgeons and specialised techniques to ensure safe and successful outcomes. With my extensive training and surgical experience I am often entrusted to operate on many challenging cases referred to me from colleagues around the region. If you think you may be at increased risk from cataract surgery I would encourage you to discuss your options with me.
Comprehensive Preoperative Evaluation and Customised Care:
Before undergoing cataract surgery with premium IOLs, you will undergo a comprehensive preoperative evaluation to assess your eye health and visual requirements. I will guide you through every step of the process, from selecting the right IOL for your needs to postoperative care and follow-up appointments, ensuring optimal outcomes and satisfaction. I pride myself that I am one of the only surgeons in the South West to offer the full range of IOL options and many patients select me for their cataract surgery for this reason.
