Tyrrell was assistant surgeon at the London Eye Infirmary in 1820, and Lecturer in anatomy and surgeon to St Thomas's Hospital in 1822. He became Arris & Gale lecturer. He published Diseases of the eye (1840).[1]
A nephew (by marriage) of Sir Astley Cooper, Tyrrell was one of Thomas Wakley's 'Three Ninnyhammers' whom Wakley accused of medical incompetence.[2] Tyrrell was also co-proprietor of the Aldersgate Private Medical Academy (founded 1825) with William Lawrence.
