Moorfields treats the full range of eye conditions and our surgeons have experience of unusual conditions rarely seen at other centres. Patients with rare or complex conditions are often referred to Moorfields from around the UK for this reason.

We are unable to list all ophthalmic conditions here. This section covers only the most common conditions. If we have not covered a condition you are interested in, please see our useful websites section where one of the external organisations listed may be able to help you.

Information for patients

Moorfields produces a range of free information leaflets for patients on common eye conditions and treatments. For more information see information leaflets for patients.
