All the best in July.

HI Oz,
I can share your frustration. I was supposed to have my left eye done in Feb, but the hospiatl forgot to order the equipment, This delayed it for about 6 weeks, and then my surgeon had to get his Easter holidays in, which delayed it again.
Finally ended up in theatre on April 1st !!!! - and half way through the op, the machine lost suction, so the process had to be aborted. All the pain and no gain.!!
Then had to wait another three weeks for the eye to heal to try again. This time successful, but still having complications,
Having said that my surgeon has been a great help and very supportive, as thankfully have been my employers, and of course the potential for better vision is why we put ourselves through all of this

Wishing you all the best, and hope all goes well for you
Regards

Peter

All the best with your surgery next month.
