I had my first cataract operation on my left eye under NHS in 2021. It didn't go well. My eye was not properly sealed, I phoned in to express some anxiety about about my deteriorating vision, but was told this was normal. After 10 days I went for my follow up and found my eye was leaking and had deflated.This was very concerning. I went for several further emergency appointments and my eye recovered. After that I decided to go private for my second operation and was recommended to David Anderson. It was a very different experience, comfortable and reassuring. I could tell my second operation had gone well from the smooth feeling under the eye lid and immediate improvement in vision. I was hyper vigilant after my previous experience and thought my eye was watering excessively. I phoned up and I was told to immediately come in for further examination. I was reassured my op. was fine, but I may have an allergy to the eye drops. My prescription was immediately changed. I now have very good vision in both eyes and can drive at night without a problem. I'm glad I turned down a NHS offer to operate on my right eye and picked David Anderson instead. Money well spent.
