"Cataract Surgery and Ozurdex Implant."

About: The Maidstone Hospital

On the day of my cataract surgery at the 'Eye Day Care Centre' everything went well and was excellent from start to finish; from reception staff ----> nursing staff ----> pre-operation consultation with surgeon ----> the operation itself.

For me, the new 'tropicanine' pellets now used to dilate the pupil kept falling out of my eye because it is quite watery, but that was quite minor.

There is quite a long wait between being diagnosed with needing cataract surgery and actually getting it, but as I said above on the day of the operation everything could not be better.
