My eyelids had become very droopy, pushing down on my lashes. I just wanted a very subtle lift, nothing drastic. I've always had a fold and wanted that to remain, just not the droop. I was very repetitive and clear. The AI modeling that was done at consultation turned out to be filters, there was no ability to then tailor to the person, and I don't look like that anyway so perhaps I'm missing the point. I'm now almost 7 weeks out and my deepest fear has come true. There is almost no fold left to speak of, the scars are so high that they're very visible. My lids are now extremely prominent with minimal skin folding over. I can fully close my eyes, so functionally everything works at least. But aesthetically this was my worst-case outcome and the reason I waited so long to have the surgery in the first place. I've since met with a top eyelid reconstruction surgeon in the US (granted, at 4 weeks and he did say at that point there was still swelling). But even then, he said my scars were "crazy high", and looking at 'before' photos, that the amount removed was "aggressive". I don't look like myself, and in several months will need to undergo expensive reconstruction surgery. I have refused to engage with this surgeon anymore though he keeps asking me to come in, as he repeatedly tells me he didn't take off much (I can look in the mirror and see every day that's not true), and I see no point as I do not trust him. The scars aren't 'hidden in the crease', they're way above them and very visible even with the tons of concealer and fake glasses I now wear. The entire shape of my eyes has now changed, it isn't a subtle removal. I think it's clear that I'm extremely upset with this entire experience.

Mr Mitry took the time to listen and address all my concerns. He gave me options and he was supportive in helping me choose the best route for me.

Excellent clinician. Extremely competent, great communication skills. As a doctor myself I felt like I was very well cared for and in safe hands.

Very professional. I felt comfortable hearing his explanation of the cataract operation. Thorough examination

This was my second consultation with Mr Ionides to discuss removal of my cataracts. As before, Mr Ionides was excellent; his explanations were clear and I felt able to ask as many questions as I wanted. I am going ahead with the operation.

Explain everything very well
