Philip Goose, of road safety charity Brake, said: "Drivers who disregard the rules of the road by breaking limits should be made aware of the devastation that we witness to those affected.”

My sentiments exactly - concerning the tens of thousands of people damaged by the eye surgery industry!

Unfortunately, those responsible are more likely to say: "Face bovvered? Not bovvered!"

To date it appears that I'm one of two people involved in the recent OE press stories who haven't been sent a threatening letter from this law firm - the Observer newspaper had one too!



Pity I didn't contact Schillings myself after my computer was hacked and my personal information (including bank account details) posted on the internet in 2012!

Not forgetting the online threats I received...

So much more yet to tell

Optical Express has responded to claims that one of the intraocular lenses it used was under scrutiny by regulators.

"Contrary to the media reports, we have been informed by Oculentis that there is no MHRA inquiry into the MPlus X lens."

"A spokesman from Optical Express said: ‘We are aware of the decision taken by the ICO. We will be lodging an appeal.’"

Short and sweet - like me

If you had multifocal lens replacement surgery at Optical Express between January and November 2014 it is likely that you were implanted with MPlus X lens.

As well as numerous legal claims now being processed, the press and media want to interview patients who are suffering problems with these lenses.

"Sasha Rodoy, 61, who has been campaigning for better regulation of the corrective surgery industry, said: ‘The only reason anybody should have these operations is if it is the only option that will stop them going blind. They are just not safe.’

A spokesman for Oculentis confirmed the firm had received four ‘incident reports’ from the MHRA.

He added: ‘We are currently in the process of analysing the facts, as all of these reports are very unspecific and unsubstantiated, only basically mentioning poor distance vision as the main complaint."

That's alright then - what's everyone moaning about

Blindness fears over eye surgery at High St clinic: Patients 'left with worse sight after lens implants'

• Safety concerns raised over replacement lens used by Optical Express
• Manufacturers Oculentis and Optical Express both deny fault with lens
• Used in procedure called refractive lens exchange to fix minor problems

NB: The word "Blindness" has since been removed from the Mail Online story after Optical Express issued legal proceedings against the Daily Mail.
