Optegra: Premium private eye clinic re-opens 'boutique' hospital in Leeds village under new ownership

Optegra Eye Heath Care has announced it has taken over Custom Vision Clinic in Bramham, near Wetherby.

The clinic has now reopened and rebranded under the new ownership, as part of the company's “extensive growth and expansion strategy”.

The boutique-style hospital at Bowcliffe Hall was founded by former Optegra ophthalmic consultant surgeon James Ball.

Returning to the company, Mr Ball has become one of the brand’s “Ambassador surgeons” and will continue his work at the clinic along with fellow surgeon Jack Gormley and his team of 11 colleagues.
