Opthalmologist Needed - HELP!!!

[accountant]

I need to find an opthalmologist who is familiar with PPL medicals, CAA regulations, etc. I am in Central Scotland, but would be prepared to travel to London. I need a report on my keratoconis (which causes me to be classified as "monocular") to submit to Gatwick. Or anyone (opthalmologist or not) who could give me advice in this area? I recall there was a letter in one of the flying mags a few months ago from an opthalmologist who offered to give advice but I can't find it now. I'm a PPL and have posted on that site also, but maybe one of you instructors can help.

Accountant,

I suggest you repost this in the Medical forum... you'd probably have better luck there.

Cheers,
Nial

Any opthamologist worth his salt will know what you mean when you quote a CAA class one/two or three medical requirement.
The eyesight standards for all are the smae as required for LGV/PCV driving medicals, which most GP's undertake, and therefore most opthalmists cater for.
