Clinic Overview

Veterinary Vision Ltd is a dedicated ophthalmology referral clinic focused on eye conditions and eye surgery. The website describes “state-of-the-art operating facilities,” and reviews repeatedly mention complex procedures and decision-making support—such as cataract surgery (including prosthetic lens fitting), lens luxation, corneal ulcers, and eye removal. Owners also describe thorough explanations throughout treatment, with some mentioning planned review appointments after surgery and feeling supported through difficult outcome discussions.

Services

  • Ophthalmology referral care (specialist eye cases referred in).
  • Cataract surgery (mentioned for a senior greyhound; also described alongside prosthetic lens fitting in another case).
  • Lens luxation assessment and treatment decision support (described as painful and urgent).
  • Corneal ulcers management (ulcers in both eyes mentioned).
  • Eye removal (enucleation) (described in a young dog with multiple ocular defects).
  • Surgical admissions for eye procedures (owners mention pets being admitted for surgery and feeling safe during admission).
  • Follow-up/recheck appointments after surgery are referenced (a review mentions being “due in for a review” a few days later).

People

  • Rebecca: mentioned as helping an owner arrive with a very unwell dog; described as calm and clear, and as helping them make a difficult decision when the outcome wasn’t what they wanted.
  • Richard: repeatedly referenced as the vet managing a long-term ophthalmology case from puppyhood through multiple surgeries, including cataract removal and prosthetic lens fitting; owners emphasise his skills/knowledge and that procedures and next steps were explained.

Reviews
