The role of the ophthalmic nurse in England has developed during the last 5 years with more nurses working as practitioners who run their own clinics. With the introduction of Working for Patients, the whole ethos of the National Health Service in England has changed. This study uses structured interviews to identify how three Trusts have developed the role of the ophthalmic nurse to meet the changing needs of the National Health Service. Analysis of the data identified that despite numerous problems encountered, ophthalmic nurses are responsible for driving same-day surgery ensuring that patients' needs are met.
