Cataracts had so severe- ly impaired her vision she was no longer able to drive a car, or see anything clearly. A visit to Dr. Dyson in London provided her with a couple of options , and she chose to have lens implants. The defective lens is removed, and a plastic lens inserted in a relatively simple operation under a twilight anaesthetic and local anaesthesia, so the patient is aware of everything, but very comfor- table and relaxed. Mary's ap- pointment for a January operation was made in June, but she was able to have one eye done in September and one just before Christmas on cancellations. By January she's quite sure she would on- ly have been able to distinguish light from dark, and possibly some movement. Both times she was admit- ted one day, had the operation the next day and came home iiii) I the following day, but she knows of one patient who ' came in early in the morning and left the same night.
