Referral Ophthalmology

After waiting being on a waiting list for 50weeks, I finally had an appt. I was referred by my optician to have a naevus looked at and narrowing angles. I was only given an appt for the naevus. I had not been put on a waiting list for the other as two requests were put on one referral. My optician was not informed. I then had to to be re-referred after I had to chase this. I was out through on a rapid waiting list (18weeks) as I had already waited over a year. I rang the appt line to see where I was in the queue and was told I had been downgraded to routine waiting list which is currently at 34 weeks. So I have now been waiting 15months, with another 8 months to wait. All of which could have been avoided if the optician had been notified earlier that they needed to do 2 referrals. Not impressed as none of this is my fault. What s the point in even referring patients?
