Moorfields Magazine | Summer 2026

July 2, 2026

News from our full member Moorfields Eye Hospital

This issue features the progress made on the new Moorfields and UCL Centre for Eye Health, and answers many questions for patients (and staff), as well as a link to some new interviews with clinicians on their aspirations for the new centre.

In the magazine you’ll find stories about hypotony treatment, an increase in the prevalence of glaucoma, the first use of one of our genetic therapies in children, and how AI is helping people in remote areas of Bangladesh.

The magazine showcases oncology and pharmacy, and also covers investment in Bedford, surgical accreditation for Stratford and Moorfields’ representation on The Ophthalmologist’s Power List.
