How to choose best surgeon for lens replacement surgery?

[Rollerbird]

I'm 55,-12 prescription, astigmatism
I've wanted to look at lens replacement for ages and am nearly at the stage of having enough money to get it done.
How can I make sure I choose the best possible surgeon for me?

Check out eye hospitals in your area and see who the surgeons are. You can then check them out.

On a personal note, my husband has had experience of several eye surgeons and the best one by a long shot was Stephen Charles at Manchester.
