Specialist Paediatric Eye Care
A new paediatric eye care service for Munster.
We’re pleased to announce our newest service at Veonet Ireland Cork Mahon Clinic.
Our new paediatric eye care service provides specialist assessment and management for children across Munster ages 1 – 16 years, with the first clinic taking place on Saturday 28 November.
Why we are opening this service
There are very few paediatric ophthalmologists practising in Munster, and families across the province face long waits for both public and private appointments. Our new clinic adds specialist capacity in Cork, with no waiting lists, so the children you refer can be seen sooner and closer to home.
A Saturday clinic that works for families
The clinic runs on dedicated Saturdays from 8am to 5pm, so children do not need to miss school, and parents do not need to take time off of work. Our first clinic takes place on Saturday, the 28th of November.
We see children aged 1 to 16 with:
- Allergic eye disease and red eyes
- Lumps and bumps
- Strabismus (squint)
- Amblyopia management
If you are unsure whether a child is suitable for referral, our Cork team is happy to advise. Please give us a call on +353 (2) 1 603 6101 with any questions.
How to refer
Refer online in a few minutes, and we will contact the family directly to arrange the appointment.
As with every referral you send us, we will ensure to notify you when they are booked in, and the outcome of their appointment.
You can also refer by calling +353 (2) 1 603 6101 or emailing [email protected]
