Safe Surgical Environment 

Since its inception, The Medical Eye Clinic has made the utmost commitment to delivering exceptional patient-centred care throughout surgical procedures. The growing concern surrounding infection rates in hospitals, a topic frequently discussed in various media outlets, has urged us to establish stringent systems that guarantee a clean and secure environment within our operating rooms, thereby minimising the risk of infections.  

Astonishingly, these systems are not legally mandated for cataract clinics, leading numerous private clinics to overlook the investment in these costly installations. To compound the issue, some clinics even possess air conditioning systems that may potentially introduce contaminated air from the outside directly into the surgical area. At the Medical Eye Clinic, we spare no expense in our relentless pursuit of ensuring patient safety.  

According to esteemed researchers at Yale University, the mere presence of an individual within a room can introduce a staggering 37 million bacteria into the air per hour. Considering the possibility of up to five individuals being present, with one undergoing surgery, we firmly believe that it is imperative to take precautionary measures. To address this concern, we have partnered with Interfurn UK to commission a customised air filtration system. This state-of-the-art system not only maintains a comfortable surgical temperature but also prevents the mixing of contaminated external air with the meticulously purified air inside our operating theatre.  

Our dedicated Air Handling Unit tirelessly works to cleanse the air, creating a safe surgical environment for our esteemed patients. It is crucial to note that our air handling unit fully complies with HTM standards and has undergone thorough inspections conducted by the Care Quality Commission. Furthermore, we have taken additional steps to enhance the safety and well-being of our patients. We have coated the walls of our theatre with a specialised substance specifically designed for such environments. Additionally, every joint in the floor, walls, and ceiling has been meticulously sealed. As a result, the entire surgical area maintains its own climate, significantly augmenting the safety and well-being of our patients.

Benefits of private eye surgery in Devon 

Enhanced Treatment Availability  

Private medical facilities offer a considerable advantage when compared to the extensive waiting times experienced by the National Health Service (NHS). Within the NHS, patients often face prolonged periods of six months or more before their vital surgical procedures can be scheduled.  

Conversely, our private eye surgery centre in Devon ensures prompt and effective treatment, usually within a few weeks after the initial consultation. This guarantees that patients receive timely and efficient care without any unnecessary delays.  

The Significance of Prompt Treatment Access   

The immediate availability of eye surgery is an absolute necessity for numerous compelling reasons. First and foremost, having quick access to treatment significantly reduces the waiting time, which is crucial because extended delays can further deteriorate a patient’s eyesight, potentially impacting their overall quality of life. Mundane tasks like reading, driving, and recognising familiar faces can become increasingly burdensome and challenging. This leads to frustration, dependence on others, and a loss of personal autonomy. 

 Additionally, untreated eye conditions may give rise to further complications such as persistent inflammation, glaucoma, or even complete vision loss in severe cases. Therefore, the sooner patients can receive treatment, the lower the likelihood of complications arising and the faster their normal visual capabilities can be restored. Furthermore, immediate access to treatment also eases the anxiety and stress associated with waiting for a medical procedure, contributing to an enhanced state of mental well-being.
