Pressure is growing on an NHS hospital where dozens of patients suffered impaired vision, pain and discomfort after undergoing eye operations provided by a private healthcare company to publish its report into what went wrong.

The shadow health minister, Andrew Gwynne, is calling for ministers to investigate what happened and said it was important that the hospital’s report was published.

Gwynne said: “Ministers should look into this particular case. It’s clear that patients are being badly let down. If the NHS can learn lessons from the use of this private company, we must see the report in question.”
