I gave the eye clinic a phone and asked if I could have an appointment because I am worried about my vision. Explained that I had seen my optician and he has prescribed new glasses which were fine at the time (month ago) but I was again experiencing difficulties. I got told the consultant is fully booked !!!! That is a no then. Advised to go back to my optician who will refer me or my GP. Understand that they are really busy but fed up. Thanks for the feedback and advice though, much appreciated.

In your place I'd go to my GP and ask for a referral; that would probably be the quickest way into the system.
All the best
