All departments, wards and other functions off the main
corridors have been given a unique location code which is made up
of the zone, floor level and location number e.g. H304: H (zone) 3
(level) 04 (location number). The ground floor of the Eye Hospital
is Level 0. The names of locations have been updated but the
physical locations of clinics and areas have not changed. Your
appointment letter will state the location code and staff will be
on hand to help you find your appointment location if you have any
queries. Location names can be found
here.
