Professor Gartry and his teams at the Wimpole Eye Clinic and Moorfields were wonderful. The improvement in my vision is quite marked, especially as regards reading. The information given beforehand by both Prof. Garty and Moorfields was excellent as 99.% of those undergoing surgery would have had all the information they required. My only comment is that this was written for people with two functioning eyes, and I only have one. A separate information sheet, pointing out that one would be utterly blind post-surgery until the next morning, would have been appreciated in order to ensure that I had help at home. I was lucky as my procedure was not done till the evening, also I only had to get home and get to bed and take off the pad in the morning. This was lucky as I had been offered a choice of time and nearly elected for a morning appointment. This would have meant that I was blind, and needed help for minimally half a day instead of the 2 hours in which I experienced what sightlessness was like. In retrospect, I am glad that I did experience this.
