I've got one and I'm going for the initial assessment on Monday next, it's a bit scary really cos it's the only eye i;ve got (long story)

I'm 67 so judging by when you young uns got em i've lasted quite well up to now, fingers crossed.

My Dad had only one eye that worked to any real degree and when he needed the surgery he had to have it and it was a great success.

Good luck to you and Russ.

Yup, it's a scary thing to do. Volunteering for something that is, strictly speaking, wholly un-necessary is a big decision. I am delighted I went through with it. I am not delighted with Optical Express. If you can find an alternative, do.

I went with Optical Express and found there after-care exceptional. That said I have nothing to compare it with but I felt well cared for.
