I attended but am unsure of the date as I have only just found this page and explained that I was an NHS worker who could not take the time off work but that my eye was itchy and very painful. I had been to the pharmacy and asked for eye drops but the pharmacist had recommended that I attend minor injuries. I was treated with a complete lack or compassion or respect and told 'we don't deal with those type of problems here' Have you got something in it? I don't think so I said 'well you need to go to A and E'. I was trying to save the NHS time and money by not being off work myself and not clogging up A and E. Instead I used a friends eye ointment and remained at work .
"attended due to a painful eye [earlier this year ]"
