About me
Mr Benson is an experienced ophthalmologist and cataract surgeon. He is head of the Vitreoretinal service at Calderdale and Huddersfield NHS Trust and is highly skilled in complex cataract surgery. He has performed thousands of cataract and vitreoretinal procedures (including IOL exchange) and vitreoretinal surgery for floaters, epiretinal membranes, macular holes and retinal detachment. He is one of the few surgeons in Yorkshire who can combine premium lens surgery with vitreoretinal surgery in suitable patients using the smallest 27G (0.4 mm incision) vitrectomy. He also specialises in retinal diseases, general ophthalmology, glaucoma and diabetic eye disease including YAG and argon laser treatments.
He trained at Imperial College, London, followed by the John Radcliffe hospital in Oxford before completing his ophthalmology training in Yorkshire.
He is a clear communicator and will help you navigate the complex world of modern surgical options to find your personalised best fit. He uses the full spectrum of intraocular lenses (monofocal - Eyehance, EDOF - Puresee/Vivity, multifocal - Panoptix/Odyssey/Envy, toric) for treatment of near-sightedness (myopia), farsightedness (hyperopia), presbyopia (loss of reading vision with age) and astigmatism (with toric lenses).
