Common questions from Kettering patients

How long is the wait for private cataract surgery in Kettering?
Most patients are consulted within a week or two, with surgery usually a few weeks after that — considerably faster than the NHS route. See can I get cataract surgery sooner if I go private?
Do you see patients from Market Harborough and Corby?
Yes — Glendon Wood is usually the most convenient site for patients from Market Harborough, Corby, Rothwell, Desborough and Oundle. There is more detail in our guide for Market Harborough, Stamford and Peterborough patients.
Is the initial consultation free?
The initial video consultation is free and carries no obligation. A full face-to-face assessment with scans is charged separately and set out clearly beforehand — see the price list.
Can both eyes be treated on the same day?
For suitable patients, yes. Same-day bilateral surgery means fewer visits and a faster overall return to driving. We will discuss whether it is appropriate for you at your consultation.
What if Northampton is more convenient?
Mr Panthagani also consults at Three Shires Hospital in Northampton, and at Optimax in Leicester.
