## About this tender

The purpose of the Bassetlaw Ophthalmology Clinical Assessment and Treatment Service (CATS) is to improve access and patient experience of common ophthalmic conditions, promote awareness and understanding to improve self-care and treatment for patients with long term ophthalmic conditions and improve the health and well-being of Bassetlaw residents.

The service will operate as two parts:

A service which offers diagnosis and management of patients with; cataracts, glaucoma / suspected glaucoma, YAG, general / oculoplastics, medical retina, macular conditions & wet AMD.

The CATS will provide patient centred consultations that will deliver diagnostic tests and interventions at the point of contact. This method of "One Stop Shop" will ensure patient care is effectively delivered through a minimum number of patient contacts.
