The Sussex Eye Hospital has its origins in Brighton in 1832 the same year that the British Medical Association was founded
Its founder Dr James Pickford operated from a single room in Middle Street and it was known as The Sussex and Brighton Infirmary for Diseases of the Eye

November 2007 is the 175th anniversary of the Sussex Eye Hospital This hospital is regarded as a national centre of excellence and continues to provide pioneering and innovative surgery and treatment
