A new NHS consultant-led eye clinic has been set up at the Robin Lane Medical Centre site. The NHS now guarantees choice to patients. This means that patients from anywhere within the Leeds city boundary can be referred to the eye service as a new patient or an existing patient undergoing eye treatment, via their local opticians, or via their own GP by specifically asking to be referred to the Robin Lane Eye Service.
We operate a number of clinics per month and waiting times are currently three weeks from referral. Waiting room has both entertainment facilities as well as free hot and cold drink dispensers.
You can opt to be referred to the eye clinic with a new problem or if you are already being seen within the NHS, you can request to have your eye care transferred seemlessly to the Robin Lane Eye Clinic.
