Thanks lastcall,
It has been nearly 4 weeks since the operation,there is some improvement in the vision, but I have had problems with high pressure in the eye possibly caused by a reaction to the steroid drops! The only symptoms of the above were when I stood up and the eye would black out for a few seconds.I am on different drops now so I'll have better results at my next visit to the surgeon fingers crossed.
My CAA doc has suspended my licence for 3 months pending a review,which appears quite sensible under the circumstances.The vision is 6/36 uncorrected , 6/12 corrected so I'm not far off my licence renewal limits UK.
Did you see double for a while when wearing glasses due to the difference in both eyes? Glad to hear you fully recovered!

Thanks again for the info Pudd.
