About this clinic

Specialist eye care in central Southampton

Our Southampton clinic is based at Spire Southampton Hospital, a CQC-rated facility with dedicated ophthalmology theatres, on-site biometry, and OCT scanning. The clinic serves patients across Hampshire — including Eastleigh, Romsey, Totton, Hedge End and the New Forest — typically seeing patients within one to two weeks.

You will be seen by the same Consultant Ophthalmologist throughout your care: from your first appointment, through any biometry and pre-op assessment, into the operating theatre, and on to your recovery reviews. There are no rotating clinicians, no junior handovers, and no need to repeat your medical history.

10 consultant-led procedures are confirmed at this site, spanning cataract and lens surgery, oculoplastic (eyelid) surgery, plus vitreoretinal and macular care. Self-pay patients and all major UK insurers are welcome.
