The UMCU had to close one of the operating rooms as a result. Four of these six patients have gone blind and hold the UMCU responsible. In July 2016 it was revealed that in 2015 six patients had developed an eye infection following an eye surgery at the UMCU. In April 2016 the Healthcare Inspectorate placed the UMCU on warning for poor healthcare and under increased supervision, after it was revealed that additional fatal incidents had been covered up. One case was reported in which a patient's carotid artery was accidentally cut during a surgery.
