After all sorts of tribulations and delays, I had a phone call out of the blue from the Bexhill Eye Clinic. Apparently starting a second clinic - I think drafted in from private sector because of huge waiting lists!! Friday 4th Nov. saw consultant who put me on the ops list. Tues. 8th, could I attend a pre op. appointment tomorrow? Could I hell!! Left eye cataract operation 0800 hrs Sat 19th Nov!!! I met DVLA acuity requirements almost straightaway but left it a few days and was driving again on Thursday 24th Nov!!! I took the lens out of the left side of my glasses and my left eye uncorrected is far better than my right eye corrected!! How good is that!! See Specsavers 19th Dec. for post op check and, all being well, they report OK to eye clinic who will then schedule my right eye operation, usually within 5-6 weeks!! By the spring, all being well, I should be back to at least 20/20 vision maybe even without glasses for distance! I don't mind either way, and it's guaranteed I will need glasses for reading. I can't wait to get all my glasses, sunglasses etc sorted out

That's great @harryflatters that is how it went for Dennis when he had his done last December. Do you see things as a bright blue colour? Dennis did for quite a while.
Wow @harryflatters that's amazing.
