Ophalmology donation

A NEW spectrum machine has been installed at Tywyn Hospital after it was bought by local fundraisers. The new Nidek AL-Scan Optical Bio meter at Tywyn Hospital was purchased by the local appeal fund at a cost of £18,995. Manoj Kulshrestha, Consultant Ophthalmologist, Hywel Dda Trust, is now able to do pre-operations, thus saving many miles of travelling and also allowing patients to be listed for cataract surgery sooner. This spectrum machine has been trailed and found to be very versatile and easy to use.
