Mr David Farnworth

Consultant Ophthalmologist

MB, BS (London), MRCP (UK), FRCOphth


Specialises in

I lead a specialist medical retina clinic at the Queen Alexandra Hospital, Portsmouth, but the majority of my workload remains phakoemulsification cataract surgery and the management of glaucoma in my general ophthalmic clinics.

I qualified from St George's Hospital, London in 1989, where I specialised in general medicine. I then received my MRCP and completed my general ophthalmic training in Leicester, Cardiff and London.

I have a special interest in medical retina disease. After a clinical research fellowship at Moorfields Eye Hospital 1998 to 2000, I developed an interest in the treatment of diabetic retinopathy and age-related macular degeneration.
