Once my GP Dr Coop of Sid Valley Practice became aware of my rapidly deteriorating vision problem she referred me to the eye unit at RD&E Hospital for an urgent appointment. This took place the next day and tests were conducted by excellent male staff.
As a result, I then saw the eye surgeon Miss Poonam Sharma who diagnosed my condition and said that it could be corrected by laser surgery. To my surprise she did the bilateral YAG laser capsulotomy there and then and my eyesight was restored to normal.
I cannot praise this surgeon highly enough. She was super efficient and professional. I am most grateful to her and indeed, the NHS.
