I had operations to correct cataracts on both my eyes in 2017, in May and October.
The whole experience from original contact with the team through all the functions to the operations was of the highest professional level.
The information given was carefully reiterated and expanded at each stage. There was a significant change in the content over the 5 months between the operations. That is a great indicator of the professionalism of the whole department.
Every member of the team was caring and supportive.
The results were far in excess of my expectations, no optimistic claims were made but after 71 years of wearing spectacles for long sight and astigmatism, with additional support for loss of accommodation,
I now have 20/20 vision - only using reading specs for very small type. I only expected less blurred vision but now the colours are so brilliant and everything is now so sharply in focus.
I can only express my gratitude to every single member of the team from the telephone contact through the nursing team to the surgeons involved.
