Cataracts are when the lens of your eye, a small transparent disc, develops cloudy patches. Cataract surgery involves replacing the cloudy lens inside your eye with an artificial one. It's the most common operation performed in the UK, with a high success rate in improving your eyesight.

Refractive lens surgery can provide clear vision without glasses or contacts, offering a long-lasting solution to common vision problems like nearsightedness, farsightedness, and astigmatism. Refractive lens surgery potentially improves quality of life by reducing dependence on corrective eyewear and enhancing daily activities such as sports, driving, and reading.
Dry eye is a common condition that occurs when your eyes do not produce enough tears or when the tears evaporate too quickly. This can lead to symptoms such as stinging, burning, redness, blurred vision, and a gritty or scratchy sensation.
Ms Tara Lane specializes in cornea and external disease and ocular surface disease. These ophthalmologists receive the most training and experience in treating dry eyes and related diseases.
The cornea is the clear layer in front of the iris. It protects the iris and lens and helps focus light on the retina. Cornea conditions can cause blurred vision, irritation, and in extreme cases vision loss.
