Jyouthed Posted March 18, 2007 Share Posted March 18, 2007 We are in the Vendee and my husband has cateracts in both eyes. In January we were told by La Roche Hospital that he could have the operation, but not until June. I contacted our doctor who said there was a shortage of eye surgeons in France, but he offered to see what he could do. He found us eye surgeon who could do the operations in March (this next week, in fact). We do have to travel to Nantes for the operations, but that is a small price to pay for a quicker service. I am not quite sure where you are located, but if you would like the name of the surgeon, let me know. Jane Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
