Optegra announces tie-up with Eyeplan

Optegra Eye Health Care has announced an official partnership with eye care scheme provider Eyeplan.

Patients with Eyeplan payment schemes will be offered access to its network of hospitals in the UK at a 10% discount.

Optegra has agreed to refer-back patients to the originating practice for post-operative care of conditions including cataract, glaucoma and AMD.

Rory Passmore, managing director of Optegra UK, said: ‘We are always looking for ways to enhance our relationships with the ophthalmic community, and this partnership provides a convenient mechanism for their patients to access the highest quality of services and treatment in a specialist eye hospital.’

Chris Clemence, commercial director of Eyeplan, added: ‘We are always seeking to increase value for the independent Eyeplan practice and their patients. This partnership with Optegra is an excellent way of developing this value.’
