My name's Irene Edwards and I live in, sorry, I live in Hounsou. Well I've been into Moorfields and I've been into Charing Cross and both experiences were good. The only thing at Charing Cross, the bright lights hurt my eyes because I've got glaucoma I find it hurts my eyes being in bright sunlight or bright these lights. No, not really, nothing. No, just relax. It's fine. They really take good care of you. You know, I've not had a problem at all.
