‘The new normal’, a phrase that has become ingrained in our day-to-day lives. The family day trip out, now replaced with a weekly food shop. Date night, now featuring a dine in deal for two and the latest boxset. Much of our daily lives put on hold in the interest of safety, and rightly so.
With many of us now spending significantly more time glued to our screens, looking after your eyes has never been more important. Eye health is often the last thing on people’s minds, and therefore we tend to leave seeking professional help until our eyes start to develop problems. You wouldn’t think twice about booking your car for a regular service to ensure it’s running at its best, why should your eyes be any different?
Ultimately, whilst regular eye check-ups are the best way to help protect and manage your eye health, sometimes this just isn’t possible and conditions go undiagnosed until symptoms appear. Therefore, expert treatment, whether in the form of surgical or non-surgical procedures, is often the best solution to maintain as much vision as possible. At The Stoneygate Eye Hospital, we are proud to be the only dedicated private eye hospital in the East Midlands. This means that we can offer services for almost all eye conditions, from cataracts and cosmetic eyelid surgery right through to laser eye surgery and everything in between. Our experienced Consultant Ophthalmologists can protect your eyes and improve your vision whilst offering you informed choices in a relaxed and caring environment.
Since reopening The Stoneygate Eye Hospital after the first lockdown back in June 2020, we have continued to provide high-quality service to all patients, both old and new; albeit in a slightly different way to protect patients’ health as well as that of our staff. The introduction of masks and social distancing ensures that airborne particles are kept to a minimum. Other measures include limited patient numbers, arrival procedures, COVID visitor risk assessments and redesigned patient pathways, to name but a few. This ensures that our patients can still receive the service they deserve whilst minimising the risk when entering the hospital.
You can call The Stoneygate Eye Hospital on 0116 270 8033 or visit our website to discuss your eye care needs and arrange a no-obligation COVID-compliant private consultation – a warm welcome guaranteed.
