The Deep-Dive Consultation
A thorough, unhurried assessment where Ms. Menassa listens to your concerns, examines your eyes comprehensively, and ensures your ocular surface is optimised for accurate measurements.

Menassa Vision is a boutique private ophthalmology practice led by Ms. Nardine Menassa, Consultant Ophthalmologist specialising in cataract and corneal surgery. Her dual expertise means she treats the whole visual system—not just the lens. Based on her experience working with patients, this comprehensive approach typically helps achieve better visual outcomes.

The Menassa Difference
Most ophthalmologists focus on the lens. Ms. Menassa focuses on the entire optical system. As a fellowship-trained Cornea and Anterior Segment specialist, she understands that your cornea provides 70% of your eye's focusing power.
This matters because conditions like dry eye, blepharitis, and early corneal changes can affect cataract surgery measurements—and therefore your visual outcome. Her "clean the windscreen first" approach helps ensure accurate planning, which typically leads to better visual results.
