I had a very high prescription of -14 in both eyes with added Astigmatism which meant I was extremely short sighted. As an active 50+ person I was very keen to investigate a solution to correct my vision so I contacted Moorfields and was referred to Professor Gartry. After a detailed initial consultation the only option available for me was to have lens replacement surgery. This is where the natural lens is replaced by an artificial lens. Professor Gartry explained all the techniques and options and I decided for a varifocal lens which would also aid my reading ability which was also failing. I had the operations in March and I am delighted with the outcome. I have donated my old glasses and lenses and I now have almost 20-20 vision and great close reading ability. The operation was very smooth and pain-free and the care was superb. I'm so glad I made this investment – colours are more vivid, images are sharper and I no longer have to think about glasses or lenses. I would highly recommend Professor Gartry and his team.
