Mr Partha Ray Chaudhuri
Consultant Ophthalmologist
DO FRCS FRC Ophth
Specialises in
I run a busy tertiary referral service for vitreo-retinal surgical patients (eg retinal detachment, diabetic retinopathy, macular hole, surgical treatment for vitreous floaters) at the Leicester Royal Infirmary Hospital and at the Spire Leicester Hospital.
I also specialise in Artisan Implant surgery for correction of very shortsighted and very longsighted patients and run national courses for consultants in this field.
I have been visiting Professor C Eckardt - an eminent vitreo-retinal surgeon in Frankfurt, Germany - for the last 12 years and have brought his unique surgical techniques to Leicester. Recently I have also been visiting Professor Grazia Pertille in Verona and am hoping to commence choroidal graft surgery for the treatment of some types of wet macular degeneration soon.
