Overview

Eye and ophthalmic compensation negligence claims solicitors

Eye damage can be life changing

Opticians, GPs, ophthalmologists and ophthalmic surgeons can make mistakes during NHS or private treatment which lead to reduced vision, visual impairment or blindness, which can be life changing. Our medical negligence specialists can help you find out what went wrong and support your potential case to enable you to have support for the future.

Support at every step

We will listen sympathetically to your case and explain in simple terms whether you have the chance of a successful claim and what to do next and will support you at every step of the way

Get your life back on track

Compensation can help you get your life back on track by covering loss of income, transport assistance, care and support at home, house adaptation, walking and technology aids. It can also help you find out who was responsible for the errors and help stop them happening to someone else.
