Ophthalmic Eye Claims

The human eye is complex and delicate. Many things can go wrong with the eye, which means that there is more chance for procedures to go wrong because of negligence. Any medical procedure that causes your vision to worsen can have a hugely negative impact on your life.

We have dealt with claims for many different circumstances. Some of these include:

• Misdiagnosis/failed diagnosis of children’s vision problems
• Misdiagnosis/failed diagnosis of malignancy
• Inappropriate/delayed ophthalmic treatment
• Misdiagnosis/failed diagnosis of eye conditions
• Misdiagnosis/failed diagnosis of macular degeneration
• Paediatric ophthalmology claims
• Radial keratotomy
• Misdiagnosis/failed diagnosis of retinal detachments
• Cataract surgery accidents
• Misdiagnosis/failed diagnosis of retinal tears
• Laser surgery accidents
• Misdiagnosis/failed diagnosis glaucoma
• Toxic optic neuropathy

Where there has been a suspicion of sub-standard medical care provided that has caused your vision to worsen, you may be entitled to make a claim. Our team of experienced and sympathetic clinical negligence solicitors can help support and guide you and your family through the investigation
process, getting you the compensation that you are entitled to.
