August 2017 I was admitted to A&E with an excruciating head pain.This was swiftly diagnosed as Acute angle closure glaucoma.Pressure in Right eye was 64.Within a few hours the pressure had come down.I was then given Iridotomy to both eyes and multiple drops.It was decided to remove both cataracts over a period.I can now see without glasses
and risk of returning glaucoma greatly reduced.The staff and doctors were brilliant and I was treated with great courtesy at all times and informed of the procedures at all times.I was able to also call the dept with any problems.Mega thanks to all the staff for a life changing experience.
"My Portsmouth Ophthalmology Dept experience."
