Mr Feyi-Waboso, who works at the Royal Glamorgan Hospital in Llantrisant, has started a pilot scheme to identify people with worsening glaucoma.
"So I'm trying to treat them appropriately with laser or with surgery to try and get things in check."Unfortunately with glaucoma, once you've lost vision it's not like a cataract, you can't retrieve the vision.
After hearing "nothing" he contacted his optician who told him he faced a further 12-month wait before he could expect treatment.Things have moved "extremely fast" since and he is due to have them removed at a hospital in Chester on Thursday afternoon."Obviously nobody wants to pay for treatment, but I felt there was no choice for me if I wanted to get the job done."
"So if you're in those groups then you need to see optometrists regularly because you might have it, and you don't even know yourself."More than 32,250 people across Wales have waited over nine months for treatment on their sight They also help free up clinicians' time in hospitals to be able to see people with more complex cases, she said.Before it erupted last March, only 66% of patients were seen on time, she explained, adding: "Unfortunately, as we know, the impact of the pandemic has been absolutely massive and now we're down to 44% of people being seen on time for their eye-care appointments."
Cant see that to be honest, I think the BBC news is making a spectacle of itself.
