"Eye Clinic Department Treatment"

I visited this hospital for the first time on 11th November for problems with my eyesight.

For the previous six months at least my eyesight had got worse.

I chose to go to Tunbridge Wells because the waiting list for an appointment was far better than my local hospital at East Surrey. The consultant confirmed that I needed laser treatment following a cataract operation I had in 2013. The consultant said that their clinic was full for that day but because I had come a long way if I was prepared to wait till the end of their clinic they would deal with the laser treatment that day.

I was absolutely delighted.

The whole department, including the charge nurse, 'was very friendly and caring.

The consultant returned to see me several times whilst I was waiting and duly completed the treatment.

I am so pleased that I can see to drive again and also read the newspaper.

Please thank them so much on my behalf.
