Cataract surgery

Not sure how it works in Scotland but in England you should be able to get it seen somewhere in a reasonable time.
Plus's + minus's for private centres. Most of the consultants also work in the NHS anyway so could be getting the same surgeon.
Incidentally I know some NHS hospitals in England are looking at doing both eyes on same day so not just private bods - not sure I think thats a great idea though!
Around here waits vary from 6 weeks to 2 years.0 -
Could you ask to be referred to a hospital with a shorter waiting list?
Are you prepared to travel?
ETA just noticed the date, hopefully it will be all sorted by now.0
