Cataract Surgery
Cataract surgery can be a highly effective procedure that can significantly improve your vision. Tina will talk you through the process, making sure you make the right decision for your needs. During the surgery, she skilfully removes the cloudy lens in your eye and replaces it with a clear artificial (intraocular, IOL) lens. This precise and minimally invasive procedure is known for its safety and can greatly enhance your vision, allowing you to see the world more clearly. Choose Tina Parmar for expert cataract care and regain your quality of life through improved eyesight.
Eyelid Surgery
Tina is a highly specialised eyelid (oculoplastic) surgeon who offers surgery to address abnormalities of the eyelid that are affecting your vision or ocular comfort. This surgery can address issues such as drooping eyelids or excess skin, or in-turning or out turning (entropion, ectropion).
Eyelid Lumps & Bumps
If you have noticed a new or changing eyelid lump, Tina will expertly diagnose the lesion and offer the best management plan for you. If you require a minor operation to remove the lesion because it is unsightly or to aid diagnosis quickly for suspicious lesions, Tina will remove the lesion aiming to reduce any complication.
YAG Capsulotomy laser
If you have been diagnosed with posterior capsular opacification (PCO) by your optician or have misty vision following cataract surgery, Tina will confirm the diagnosis, explain what the procedure entails and expertly carry out the laser to a high standard.
Dry Eyes & Blepharitis
Dry eyes and blepharitis are common conditions that can cause daily eye discomfort and pain. Tina will perform a comprehensive examination of your eyes and eyelids to personlise a treatment plan that will work for you.
Watery Eyes
Book an appointment with Tina to investigate why your eyes are watery. She can investigate abnormalities of tear production and lacrimal drainage, and tailor a management plan that works for you.
