About this clinic

Specialist eye care in Guildford

Our Guildford clinic on Stirling Road offers consultant-delivered private ophthalmology for patients across west Surrey — including Woking, Godalming, Farnham, Cranleigh and Aldershot — usually with an appointment within one to two weeks and no NHS waiting list.

You are seen by the same consultant ophthalmic surgeon throughout: from your first assessment and biometry, into theatre, and on to your follow-up reviews. There are no rotating clinicians and no junior handovers, so you never have to repeat your history.

The clinic provides the full pathway for adult eye conditions — most commonly cataract surgery and oculoplastic (eyelid) procedures, alongside glaucoma care, vitreoretinal surgery and treatment for age-related macular degeneration. Self-pay patients and all major UK insurers are welcome.

Conditions we routinely treat in Guildford

  • Cataracts (clouding of the natural lens)
