Read About Our Happy Patients
What a great experience! Very reassuring and I am very grateful for the consultation from Dr Musa he was so helpful in helping me make a decision to proceed to having eye correction surgery. I have the upmost confidence in him and the team at the Eye Doctor Clinic, Huddersfield.
Lozza 747I had implants with Dr Musa ten years ago. It was the best thing I've ever done. They are brilliant. My sight both near and distant was very poor but since the op I've had no glasses no lenses and my sight has been super. It remains really good to this day. Thank you Dr Musa. Brilliant consultations and treatment for glaucoma since.
Kay FitbitI can highly recommend the Eye Doctor Clinic, and I am so pleased I went there. Dr Musa, Gemma and Jess are lovely. They are very knowledgeable and were able to answer all my questions. My vision following surgery is great, and not having to wear glasses is fantastic.

Many private health insurance policies do cover cataract surgery, though the extent of coverage varies between providers. Standard monofocal lenses are more commonly covered; premium lens upgrades are often considered elective. We recommend contacting your insurer before your consultation, and our team can provide the documentation you need.
The NHS provides excellent cataract surgery free of charge, typically with a standard monofocal lens. Private surgery offers significantly shorter waiting times (weeks vs months), your choice of named consultant, a wider range of premium lens options, and a more personalised experience with dedicated one-to-one time with your surgeon.
Costs vary based on the surgeon's experience and sub-specialty training, the lens technology used, the facility where surgery is performed, and the level of included aftercare. At The Eye Doctor, all prices are transparent and all-inclusive , the price quoted is the price you pay.
