Clinic facilities

Conveniently located within the 480 Specialist Centre, Vision Eye Institute Windsor Gardens is co-located with Windsor Gardens Day Surgery, ensuring continuity of care for patients undergoing surgical procedures.

The clinic is accessible to those with limited mobility and those who require mobility aids. Free on-site parking is available directly near the entrance and our clinic is located on the ground floor. There is also a wheelchair-accessible entrance and restroom.

Patients can enjoy refreshments at the on-site cafe, including a light lunch.

Clinic services

The clinic is fully equipped for consultations, diagnostic testing and minor procedures. Surgical procedures are performed at Windsor Gardens Day Surgery, co-located within the 480 Specialist Centre.

Members of our team also speak Greek and Portuguese. If you would prefer to have your consultation in one of these languages, please call the clinic and we will do our best to accommodate this.

Cataract surgery

Cataract surgery involves replacing the cloudy lens of the eye with an artificial one. Our ophthalmic surgeons can treat early to advanced cataracts and perform complex cataract surgery.

There are a variety of replacement lens options available, and your doctor will help you decide on the lens type that best suits your vision and lifestyle needs. Cataract surgery is performed as a day surgery procedure and usually takes less than 30 minutes (although you will be in the day surgery for approximately two hours in total).

Glaucoma management

Glaucoma is a common condition that can gradually lead to permanent sight loss, but there are a number of treatment options that can stop or slow the condition. Most patients can manage their glaucoma with medicated eye drops, but some people may require another treatment.

Laser procedures for glaucoma (e.g. selective laser trabeculoplasty and laser peripheral iridotomy) are performed in the clinic and are painless and quick. Surgical procedures (e.g. filtration surgery and MIGS/iStent) are performed under twilight sedation in the day surgery.

Macular disease treatment

We see patients with age-related macular degeneration and diabetic macular oedema. If you have a macular condition, eye drops may be used to dilate your pupil so that we can examine the back of your eye, where the retina is. Your vision will be blurry and you will have increased sensitivity to glare – this should subside within 4 to 6 hours. Please note that you will not be able to drive home and will need to make other arrangements.

Treatments such as eye injections or laser therapy (which is different to laser eye surgery) may be performed on the same day, depending on the level of urgency. Retinal laser treatment is performed in the clinic.

Corneal procedures

Our corneal specialists commonly diagnose and manage disorders such as keratoconus, pterygium (Surfer’s Eye) and corneal dystrophies. They have expertise in performing complex procedures, such as corneal transplantation, scar excision and pterygium removal.

Minor procedures

We also perform YAG laser capsulotomy for posterior capsule opacity after cataract surgery (to clear scar tissue from behind the lens).
