Consultant Standards and Transparency

At Blue Fin Vision® Eye Clinic in London, we maintain the highest standards for our consultants. Here’s what we ensure:
- Each consultant ophthalmologist is currently registered with the General Medical Council (GMC) and is listed on the Specialist Register for Ophthalmology.
- They each have a minimum of three years of experience at the consultant level within an NHS hospital’s eye department. This includes at least one year in a substantive consultant post.
- Our consultants have the capability to perform a high volume of cataract surgeries, and they also have expertise in a particular sub-specialty within eye care.
- We make sure they have a proven track record of clinical excellence.
- Our team has extensive experience in managing multidisciplinary clinical teams.
- They are skilled in handling incidents and managing complaints.
- They regularly participate in clinical audits to maintain and improve quality of care.
To ensure transparency, we publicly display our consultants’ Posterior Capsular Rupture (PCR) data on the Blue Fin Vision® website for potential and current patients to review.
