About

Mr Bataung Mokete has been a consultant ophthalmologist in Leeds since 2009, specialising in medical and surgical diseases of the retina, vitreous, and macula.

He trained as an undergraduate at the University of Bristol and commenced higher surgical training in ophthalmology on the South Thames rotation of the London Deanery in 2001. Between 2004 and 2005, he received advanced subspecialty training in medical retina at Moorfields at St George’s Hospital and Moorfields Eye Hospital. He then undertook fellowship training in vitreoretinal surgery at the Sussex Eye Hospital, followed by a further fellowship at St Thomas' Hospital in London, where he gained experience in the management of complex vitreoretinal conditions.

The medical retina aspects of Mr Mokete’s practice include the management of retinal conditions such as age-related macular degeneration, diabetic retinopathy and its complications, and retinal vein occlusions.

His vitreoretinal practice includes conventional and vitrectomy management of retinal detachment, as well as epiretinal membranes, traction, macular holes, flashers and floaters, and the complications of cataract surgery. Mr Mokete also performs routine and complex cataract surgery using modern techniques and lenses.
