Okay, Beryl, could you tell me about your experience of today's cataract procedure? I think it went quite well. I mean, they were all very kind when I got here. No hold-ups, and yes, I think it was very good. Okay. Is there anything that you would advise or tell a prospective patient about this procedure in the future, in the year the patient was about to have this? Not to worry, there's no problems, just put your faith in the doctor and everything's fine. Okay. Is this the first time you've had this operation? No, no. I've had one cataract done before. Okay. And I've had glaucoma operations and same hospital and everything's gone very well. Okay. That's very good. And was there anything that you experienced today that was unexpected? Something that happened which you were told wasn't going to happen? No, I don't think so. It went quite well, yes. Okay. So you're very satisfied? Satisfied with everything, yes. And you've had it before and nothing to worry about? No, no problem. Okay. Well, thank you for that Beryl. That's right. I'm sure other patients will find that very helpful. Good.
