Starting your Oculentis claim

It’s easy to start your Oculentis claim if you haven’t joined our action for compensation yet. All the initial advice is free, and you can claim on a No Win, No Fee basis.

If you’re one of the hundreds of people who have suffered opacification problems after having surgically-implanted intraocular lenses from Oculentis, you’re not alone. As a result of phosphate that was once used in the manufacturing process that could be the cause of calcification issues, some people who have been fitted with specific lenses are having problems. Sometimes, the blind spots and cloudiness don’t appear until years after the surgery. When they do appear, it can be worrying for the patient, and you will likely need corrective surgery.

You could also be entitled to claim personal injury compensation, and we can help you.

Mesh implant problems prompts NHS ban

pelvic mesh inquiry

We are very pleased to see that the NHS has finally put a ban on mesh operations as a result of continuing mesh implant problems.

Mesh implant problems have been known for a long time now, and the complications that patients can suffer from are often permanent and incredibly severe. There have been a number of investigations leading to the MHRA previously suggesting that the benefits outweighed the risks of the procedure, before the introduction of guidelines introduced by NICE (The National Institute for Health and Care Excellence). Now, there is a total pause on the procedures altogether in most cases.

We welcome the news as we have been advising people who have suffered mesh implant problems for years.

pelvic mesh inquiry

An American woman from the state of Pennsylvania is set to be paid $2.16 million (around £1.7 million) for injuries suffered after having a pelvic mesh device implanted.

The medical device was manufactured by Ethicon; a medical device branch of Johnson & Johnson.

Ms Margaret Engleman brought the lawsuit after she had the mesh implanted to treat her stress urinary incontinence (SUI). However, the mesh reportedly fused and eroded into her organs causing painful complications. Being fused into her organs, the mesh could not be surgically removed and continues to cause pain and urinary problems to this day.
