Macular Degenerate with eye-land tales from the Caribbean

Chris chats to fellow 'degenerate' Phil Slater, speaking from his home in the Cayman Islands. Before retirement, Phil spent years working as a community mental health nurse across the British territory. Life has recently thrown a few challenges his way. Alongside a diagnosis of wet AMD, he's also come through cataract surgery. In this light‑hearted conversation, Chris and Phil show that even the scariest parts of sight-loss can become manageable. The idea of an injection into the eye feels terrifying at first, but with time you adapt, you process, and you even find moments to laugh about it! Their conversation is honest, reassuring, and full of the kind of hope you only get from people who truly understand what you're facing!
