The clocks go back on 25 October.

For most people that's just darker evenings. If you have a cataract, it's more specific than that. Oncoming headlights bloom into halos. The kerb outside your own front door flattens into the pavement. And the things you used to do after dark start quietly dropping off the list.
The lift you gave a friend. The class that runs till nine. Driving to your daughter's at Christmas.

Here's the honest question: what have you already stopped doing in the evening - and have you been telling yourself it's preference?

Cataract surgery takes about fifteen minutes.

Choosing where to have it deserves longer.

At Solasta it happens in a dedicated, RQIA-registered cataract clinic in Banbridge, the surgeon who assesses you is the surgeon who operates, and our premium lens options are matched to how you actually live.

Book an assessment before the nights close in properly.

The cataract comes out. Something has to go in its place - and that something stays with you for the rest of your life.

Most people don't realise they get a say in what it is.

Cataract surgery removes your clouded natural lens and replaces it with a new one. That lens decides how you'll see from then on. Whether you can read a menu without reaching for your glasses. How comfortable you feel driving after dark. Whether you need glasses at all for distance.

It's one of the few decisions in healthcare where you genuinely get to choose. So it's worth choosing properly.

Here's how the choice actually gets made.

We measure both your eyes in detail first - that tells us the length of the eye, the shape of the cornea, and how much astigmatism is there. Then your consultant ophthalmic surgeon talks you through what each lens would realistically do for your eyes, and asks how you actually spend your days. Do you drive at night? Read for hours? Work at a screen?

You decide. We make sure you're deciding with the full picture.

The consultant who assesses you is the same consultant who operates and sees you afterwards. The technology matters. So does the person reading it.

There's no single best lens. There's a best lens for your eyes, your prescription and your life.

Come and have that conversation.

Lens suitability is assessed individually - not every lens type is right for every eye.

β€œI would recommend Solasta to anyone.”

Tom chose Solasta Healthcare for his cataract surgery and is delighted with the results.

From his initial consultation through to surgery and aftercare, Tom experienced the specialist care, reassurance and personal attention that we aim to provide every patient.

For Tom, successful cataract surgery has meant clearer vision and the confidence that comes with seeing the world...and Ulster Rugby... more clearly again.

If cataracts are beginning to affect your everyday life, talk to your optometrist or our experienced ophthalmology team.

Thank you, Tom, for trusting Solasta with your sight β€” and for recommending us to others.

Half of all sight loss in the UK is avoidable.

It's National Eye Health Week, and that statistic is the reason it exists. More than 2 million people across the UK are living with sight loss β€” and much of it starts with conditions that can be caught early and managed well.

Swipe through for five we see every week: what to watch for, and how we can help.

πŸ‘ Glaucoma β€” often no symptoms at all until sight is already lost
πŸ‘ Macular degeneration β€” wavy lines, or a blurred patch in the centre of your vision
πŸ‘ Cataract β€” glare around headlights, faded colours, needing more light to read
πŸ‘ Dry eye β€” gritty, burning, tired or, surprisingly, watery eyes
πŸ‘ Cloudy vision after cataract surgery β€” common, not the cataract returning, and quickly treated

The most important step is the simplest one: book an eye test. Most adults should have one every two years, and it's where nearly all of this is first picked up.

If your optometrist has spotted something, or you're worried about a change in your vision, all of our eye care is consultant-led and you can refer yourself.

⚠️ Sudden loss of vision, a curtain across your sight, new flashes and floaters, or a painful red eye need urgent attention. Contact your optometrist, GP or A&E straight away.

"I just thought it was my age."

It's the sentence Dr Linda Kelly hears most often.

Dr Kelly brings 26 years of full-time general practice in inner-city Belfast, the British Menopause Society Certificate in the Principles and Practice of Menopause Care, and a teaching role at Queen's University Belfast Medical School.

What that means for you is straightforward: time. Time to describe what's actually happening β€” the sleep, the mood, the joint aches, the brain fog, the symptoms nobody warned you about. An honest run through the options, hormonal and non-hormonal, with the evidence explained rather than assumed. And a plan you've agreed to, not one handed to you.

Appointments are available in clinic at Banbridge, or virtually, wherever you are.

If you've been told you're too young, too old, or that you just need to get on with it β€” come and have the conversation properly.

You don't need to be on a waiting list.

It's the single biggest misunderstanding about the NI Planned Healthcare Scheme - and it costs people years.

If you live in Ireland and you're entitled to public healthcare, you can have your cataract surgery with us in Northern Ireland and claim roughly €1,560 per eye back from the HSE. No waiting list required. Private insurance doesn't disqualify you.

Dublin to our door: one hour, straight up the M1. In theatre: 15-20 minutes. Home: the same day. The HSE paperwork: we do it with you.

Swipe for how it works β†’ then ring us and we'll tell you honestly whether the scheme fits you.
