For your first specialist appointment at MY Eye Clinic, bring your referral letter, a list of current medications (or bring the medicines with you), any relevant test results, scans, or medical letters, a list of questions you want to ask, your NHS number, and photo ID if attending as a private patient. It helps to write down your symptoms, when they started, and how they affect your daily life.
Many specialists at MY Eye Clinic now offer video or telephone consultations for initial assessments, follow-ups, and results discussions. Virtual consultations are convenient and reduce travel time. Not all conditions can be assessed remotely — if a physical examination is needed, you will be asked to attend in person. Ask about remote consultation options when booking.
Yes, under NHS Patient Choice you can choose which consultant to see when your GP refers you. For private patients, you can request a specific specialist. Consultant profiles with qualifications and specialisms are usually available on the clinic website. Your GP can also recommend a suitable specialist for your condition.
After your consultation, the specialist will write to your GP with their findings, diagnosis, and recommended treatment plan. You may be booked for further tests, follow-up appointments, or referred for surgery or other treatment. For NHS patients, a copy of the clinic letter will be sent to you. Ask the specialist when to expect results and next steps before you leave.
