Mr Chandra listens carefully to my concerns and makes a very thorough assessment. He then offers me a range of choices , along with any risks and disadvantages. I first saw him about retinopathy about 5 years ago and have annual follow up ever since. He explained how laser treatment would work well but there was risk of loss of peripheral vision such that I may not be able to drive. He also assured me 'You will not go blind from this' which was incredibly important. That reassurance rings in my ears frequently! Following laser, my retinopathy is stable and I can still pass the DVLA vision test - I am grateful for Mr Chandra's skill and judgement in carrying out the treatment. More recently I have had cataract surgery which again was totally successful. I was grateful that during the follow up he advised me about my concerns about a completely unrelated recurrent eye problem. Finally - when I first saw Mr Chandra he identified an odd change in my eye. The diagnosis really seemed to depend on the duration. He allowed me time to confirm with my previous consultant (who had now moved to Australia) what had been going on and this saved anxiety and potential overtreatment.
