Moorfields Private

Moorfields Private is the London-based private division of the world-renowned Moorfields Eye Hospital NHS Foundation Trust, with a reputation as a centre of excellence for providing ophthalmic care to private patients from the UK and across the world.

For over 200 years Moorfields has pioneered research, employed the brightest minds and delivered visionary eye care. We are proud to be considered the world’s leading destination for expert eye treatment, and continue to set standards for the rest of the world to follow.

Being part of the Moorfields heritage provides the reassurance that you will have access to world-class consultant eye specialists who provide treatment and care for private patients with a wide range of eye problems, from common complaints to the most complex eye health conditions that often require treatment not available anywhere else in the world.

With two central London locations: City Road (near Old Street) and New Cavendish Street in the heart of London’s medical district, our eye care is conveniently located for international travellers.

Our financial surplus is re-invested back into Moorfields to support NHS services and research for the benefit of all patients.

All our surgeons are accredited consultants at Moorfields NHS Eye Hospital Foundation Trust.
