An eye surgeon, who has spent his career preserving others’ sight, was “devastated” when diagnosed with an inflammatory eye condition and cataracts, fearing blindness and the loss of his “career, income, and family’s security”.

Mfazo Hove, a consultant ophthalmologist based in London, found out he had acute anterior uveitis, inflammation inside part of the eye, on his birthday on January 9 2019 after experiencing excruciating pain in his eye and “unbearable” sensitivity to light.

The 48-year-old father-of-two said he had told “countless patients over the years that it can happen to anyone” – and then it happened to him, leaving him “devastated”.
