Please note that most surgical treatments can be performed under local anaesthesia. Local anaesthesia with safe, conscious intravenous sedation given by a consultant anaesthetist (known as “twilight anaesthesia”) is also available where requested. Patients are monitored throughout.

Any patients requiring general anaesthesia or who are unsuitable for surgery at our day case facility will be treated by our surgeons in a local private hospital (the BUPA Hospital Whalley Range, The Alexandra Hospital Cheadle or The Private Wing Manchester Royal Eye Hospital).
