An Unusual Appointment at the Oxford Eye Hospital

Fri 19 Jun, 20:11

After my regular glaucoma check-up appointment at the J. R. was pushed back to an interval of two years, I went there recently and was surprised that I did not see a consultant or a doctor. Instead I saw three 'technicians' for a brief sight test & pressure check, an OCT scan and then a field of vision check. I was then told I could leave and the test results would be reviewed in approximately three weeks after which I would receive a letter with the findings. Has anyone else noticed this change at the Eye Hospital? So very different from the comprehensive testing and personal approach I've received for many years at Chipping Norton Opticians.
