What is being bought

Published requirement description

The role of the post-operative follow-up appointment is to determine the visual outcome in the operated eye, to undertake a specific examination of the eye to rule out post-operative complications, and to act on the findings appropriately. The opportunity to re-assess the post-surgery refractive status may also be realised through a General Ophthalmic Service (GOS) sight test. This includes completion of the essential information for National Cataract Audit dataset.
