Both RNLI boats at Eyemouth and the St Abbs independent lifeboat were sent to the scene off St Abb’s Head at about 16:15 on Sunday.
They quickly reached the dive boat and were able to assist.
The casualty – who was showing signs of recovery – was airlifted to the Aberdeen hypobaric chamber by the coastguard helicopter.
Once the airlift was complete the lifeboats were stood down and returned to their station.
