Glynn's story

Newmedica Leicester was recommended to Glynn by his Optician after being diagnosed with a detached retina and cataracts. Prior to surgery, Glynn couldn’t see anything without his glasses, but he’s happy to report that he’s now back to playing pool and snooker,

‘It’s great, really. It’s totally different from before,’ he said. ‘I play pool and snooker regularly, and now I can actually see the balls clearly — and pot them. For once, I’ve got no excuse for missing.’

So impressed was Glynn with his experience, he has since recommended Newmedica to family members.

Newmedica Leicester is owned and led by run by Megan da Silva, Operations Director and a team of three local consultant ophthalmologists – Rishika Chaudhary, Rupal Morjaria, Ricardo De Sousa Peixoto, and Li Jiang.
