As I indicated in my previous response, combined glaucoma and cataract operations are a clinical decision based on patient need.  Combined procedures have been carried out by glaucoma surgeons for several years across Wales.

Where clinically appropriate, I  expect the potential for wider deployment to form part of the implementation of the National Ophthalmology Strategy, National Clinical Strategy for Ophthalmology - NHS Wales Executive.
