Looking for the best oculoplastic and reconstructive surgeon in the UK

[Martin028]

Hi Everyone,

I've been a TED sufferer for 5 years now, and with multiple eye surgeries later. im absolutely devastated with the results and and side effects from the surgeries. Living day by day has become nothing but a nightmare.

Can anyone recommend a top eye specialist and possibly share their experience with them?

Thank you

Hi Martin028, I have TED although have not required surgery. I found TEDct very useful for advice and support and Gillian who runs their advice line gave me a list of recommended TED ophthalmologists in my area. They also have a Facebook group and hold Zoom meetings, which I’ve found helpful and supportive. We are not allowed to recommend practitioners by name on the forum, so I will private message you. Very best wishes to you.

Hi, I can only speak from my own experience and not for your problem but the person I would recommend speaking with is <doctor name redacted>. His secretary can be contacted on <p[hone number redacted>. It's worth a chat to see if he could help you.

Please do not post doctor's names (and phone numbers) on the forum.

The Thyroid UK forum guidelines prohibit doing so.

Instead, send such information by Private Message.

Sorry I didn't realise. I'll keep off sending replies in future. Apologies.

Hello Martin028, so sorry to read your message. I agree with Buddy; TEDct is great resource (they have a very active and supportive Facebook group too). I am also requiring surgery and when I reached out to them for advise, they directed me here:bopss.co.uk/public-informat...

Good luck.
