#keepaneyeout for ... Hattie | @monoculardoctor 📍England, UK 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 🩺 Doctor Hobbies: Powerlifting, cheerleading, musical theatre, fitness & nutrition BACKGROUND / MY EYE STORY: I was born with congenital cataract and glaucoma of my right eye and underwent 5 operations between the ages of 7 weeks and 18 months old. This left a large patch of the eye quite fragile, the right eye was much bigger and discoloured in comparison to my left eye. I’ve never had good vision on my right side, but it deteriorated to the point I could only perceive light by my adult life. I didn’t have any significant problems with it until 2019 when they suggested the pain I had begun to experience was due to the thinness of the outer surface of my eye. They suggested it would likely rupture and advised I had it removed and replaced with a prosthetic. At this point they told me it would not be sensible to continue my powerlifting journey until after surgery despite setting a regional record and qualifying to compete at the British Classic. Covid sadly delayed things, but I received my surgery in December 2020 and I’m currently wearing my scleral shell. I will hopefully get my bespoke prosthetic in a few months. I’m heading back into competitive powerlifting this year and feel really grateful to have had the surgery. I share my journey both here and on my profile to encourage everyone to not feel limited; to reach for their goals with both hands, not allow any labels, disabilities or circumstances to define potential. DID YOU KNOW THAT...? When I was 11 I told my friends that when I qualified as a GP (I was so sure of my career path, even at this point) that I said I would fly to Paris and buy a Louis Vuitton bag on the Champs Elysee to celebrate. This year (covid restrictions pending) I will make that dream a reality ♥️
