Specialist squint care — easier to reach than you may think
Patients travel to Southampton from across the UK and overseas for specialist assessment and treatment of adult squint, double vision, complex eye movement problems and previous squint surgery. A video consultation can often be arranged first, helping us review your history and plan the most useful next steps before you travel.
Start with a video consultation
Your first appointment may be held by secure video. This is particularly helpful for patients travelling a long distance or coming from overseas.
Before the consultation, you can share previous clinic letters, orthoptic measurements, glasses or prism prescriptions, scan reports and earlier squint surgery records. This helps us understand your condition and decide what assessment or treatment may be appropriate.
Straightforward UK travel
Southampton has direct rail services from London Waterloo and good connections from across southern England, the Midlands, Wales and the South West.
Spire Southampton Hospital is approximately a 10-minute taxi journey from Southampton Central station. It is also easily reached by road using the M3 and M27, with on-site patient parking.
International patients welcome
Southampton International Airport is approximately 15 minutes by taxi from the hospital and is immediately beside Southampton Airport Parkway railway station.
Patients arriving through Heathrow or Gatwick can continue to Southampton by rail, coach or car. Appointments can be coordinated wherever possible to reduce unnecessary journeys and make the visit as efficient as possible.
Travelling a long distance?
Contact us before booking travel. We can advise whether a video consultation would be useful first and which medical records or measurements to send securely for review.
Spread the cost
Eligible patients may be able to use Spire Healthcare’s 0% medical loan option. Availability and terms are subject to Spire’s eligibility criteria and approval.
