Optegra is recruiting a Bank Specialty Doctor in Glaucoma for our eye hospital in Bradford BD10, paying up to £65 per hour. Optegra is one of the UK's leading specialist ophthalmology providers, delivering both NHS and privately funded eye care.

About the Opportunity:
You will work alongside the Lead Consultant for Glaucoma and a skilled multi-disciplinary team, running glaucoma consultations, assessing suitability for treatment and building management plans in line with NICE guidance and Optegra clinical policy. This is a dedicated glaucoma service in a purpose-built eye hospital — you see glaucoma patients, with consultant support and modern diagnostic equipment, rather than fitting glaucoma around a general ophthalmology list.
Key Responsibilities:
- Diagnose, assess and manage patients with established or suspected glaucoma and other ocular conditions
- Interpret diagnostic results including IOP, visual fields, OCT, fundus assessment, CCT and gonioscopy
- Build glaucoma management plans in line with NICE and Optegra clinical guidance
- Deliver treatment, including medication management, SLT and PI where appropriate
- Carry out pre-operative and post-operative consultations
- Explain treatment options, risks and benefits clearly to patients, carers and families
- Maintain accurate records on electronic patient systems
- Work with consultants, optometrists, nurses and wider clinical colleagues
- Support audit and service improvement across the glaucoma pathway
- Follow clinical governance, CQC, infection prevention and safeguarding standards
Skills and Experience Required:
Essential:
- Medical degree from a recognised university
- Current GMC registration with a licence to practise in the UK
- Ophthalmology experience with a focus on glaucoma management
- Gonioscopy competence
- Strong diagnostic and clinical decision-making skills
- Clear communication with patients, carers and colleagues
- Comfortable working independently and within a multi-disciplinary team
- Experience with electronic patient administration or medical record systems
