If cataracts are reducing clarity, contrast or night vision, we’ll assess severity and discuss surgical options. We explain lens implant (IOL) choices and what results are realistic for your eyes.

We aim to reduce waiting time from enquiry to consultation. If you have upcoming travel or work commitments, tell us and we’ll try to accommodate.

Whether you’re considering private cataract surgery or an oculoplastics procedure, the pathway should feel structured and reassuring. Below is an overview of what most Brighton patients experience.
| Topic | What it means for you | Questions to ask |
|---|---|---|
| Lens (IOL) choice | Different lenses can prioritise distance vision, reading, or a balance depending on suitability. | What outcome is realistic for driving, reading and screen use? |
| Astigmatism | If present, it may influence lens selection and how much you rely on glasses afterwards. | How will astigmatism be addressed in my plan? |
| Recovery timeline | Most people notice improvement quickly, but stabilisation can take longer. | When can I drive, exercise, and return to work? |
| Risks & complications | All surgery carries risk; the goal is informed consent with clear mitigation steps. | What are the common vs rare risks for my eye health? |
Tip for Brighton drivers: If night glare is your main problem, mention it explicitly. It can help prioritise the right diagnostics and clarify whether cataracts are the main cause.
Private eye care should be easy to understand. Exact costs depend on your diagnosis, the treatment recommended, and whether additional diagnostics are required. After your consultation, you’ll receive a clear outline of fees and what’s included.
Want an estimate before you come in? Submit the appointment form with a short note about your symptoms and any previous diagnosis. We’ll advise the most suitable starting appointment.
Not always. You can book directly. If you have an optometrist report, NHS letter, or previous scan results, bring them along as they can help streamline the consultation.
Availability varies, but private appointments are often sooner than standard pathways. Use the form and note your preferred days/times; we’ll confirm the earliest suitable option.
Some eye examinations and drops can temporarily blur vision. If you’re unsure, plan for a lift or public transport—especially if you’re travelling back to Brighton the same day.
Most people report pressure and bright lights rather than pain. We’ll discuss anaesthetic options and how we keep you comfortable throughout.
Recovery varies by procedure and individual. We’ll give tailored guidance on returning to work, exercise and driving, plus what symptoms are normal and what needs urgent review.
That’s exactly what the consultation is for. We’ll explain options (including monitoring where appropriate) so you can decide with confidence—without pressure.
“Everything was explained clearly and I felt listened to. I finally understood my options and what would happen next.”
“The team were organised from booking to follow-up. I appreciated the practical advice about recovery and driving.”
“No hard sell—just a careful assessment and a plan. That made it easy to make a decision.”
Trust matters. Your consultation includes time for questions about outcomes, risks and alternatives—so you can make an informed choice about private treatment.
If you’re in Brighton or the wider Sussex area and want a clear plan for cataracts, eyelid concerns or other eye symptoms, request an appointment today. We’ll confirm the most appropriate consultation and guide you through the process.
