Unhurried, honest conversations

We take the time to understand your lifestyle, answer every question and explain each option in plain English. You will only ever be recommended the treatment that’s genuinely right for you.

If surgery isn’t the answer, we’ll say so. If a premium lens wouldn’t suit your life, we’ll tell you. Honest advice is the foundation of everything we do.

Modern ophthalmic diagnostic equipment

State-of-the-art technology

Our partner hospitals are equipped with the latest diagnostic and surgical technology, including femtosecond-laser platforms and a full range of premium intraocular lenses from the world’s leading manufacturers.

Every treatment decision is guided by detailed biometric measurements and thorough pre-operative imaging.

    After a lifetime of wearing glasses/contact lenses I now have 20:20 vision.........wow. Mr Panthagani is very amiable and you can't help but feel at ease with him. He's informative, explains everything clearly and what you can expect after cataract surgery. I felt apprehensive as I was having both eyes done at the same time, but in hindsight there was no need. The whole procedure was quick and painless. My experience with Mr Panthagani is a very positive one and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend him.

    Delighted with the outcome of my surgery - new lens in each eye to correct vision and astigmatism. I was somewhat nervous but Mr Panthagani was thoughtful and considerate from initial assessment through surgery to the review of the surgery which has been very successful. I can see better than I ever have, I think! The staff at Optimax were also excellent. Thank you.

    My mum (79) had both of her cataract operations performed by Jesse Panthagani at Glendon Wood Hospital, and we couldn’t be happier with the care she received. Everything, from the initial pre-operative appointment through to the final check-up, went extremely smoothly. The operations were very successful, and my mum is amazed by the improvement in her vision. Mr Panthagani was professional, reassuring, and took the time to explain what to expect at every stage, which really helped put her at ease. We would thoroughly recommend him and the team at Glendon Wood Hospital.
