The design enables high volume cataract surgery to be performed effectively and efficiently. In 23/24 approximately 11,700 cataract surgeries were performed. There is an ambitious plan to maximise all theatre capacity through successful recruitment of highly specialised cataract surgeons.

NHS GJUNH is a National Treatment Centre providing access to cataract surgery to patients from across Scotland.
