About Mr Nicholas Edmeades

I am a consultant ophthalmologist with a specialist interest in cataract surgery, inflammatory diseases of the eye (uveitis) and treatments of the retina.

I treat and manage a range of general eye diseases, with additional sub-speciality expertise in age-related macular degeneration (AMD), retinal vein occlusion, diabetic eye disease, central serous chorioretinopathy and uveitis, as well as the provision of intra-vitreal therapy, laser procedures and micro-incisional ocular surgery.

I qualified as a doctor in 2004, after which I carried out additional research and was awarded a degree in Cognitive Neuroscience. After that I completed seven years of ophthalmic surgical training in South West England, followed by a fellowship at Moorfields Eye Hospital, specialising in retinal disease, uveitis and genetic eye conditions.
