Driven to Despair - Report on DVLA medical section

I was off work for 6 month due to a detached retina of my right eye and a retinal year of my left eye. I had the required operations and then had to go to a DVLA registered eye specialist which was my local hospital in Barnsley for the required eye tests to see if my eyes met the standard.
They sent me for these tests 2 month after my surge which was one month less than what is required to allow the eyes to settle after the treatment. I had my HGV class 1 and 2 revoked and had to jump through hoops to get it back. My specialist who did the operations has over 30 year experience in eye surgery and there was only that hospital (the Royal Hallamshire in Sheffield) and one in London who could do the procedure.
He stated that my eyesight was perfectly fine to go back driving HGV’s and he wrote me a letter to the DVLA stating this fact. They sent me for other tests to Rotherham general after I had the same tests done at the Hallamshire where I passed them both and then had to wait another 6-7 weeks for them to get back to me. One day I rang them up and asked who came to these desisions to revoke people’s licences and what experience they had in my sort of problem the answer I got back from the jumped up ■■■■■■ on the phone was that their medical board put together had a lot more experience than my specialist :unamused:
What boils my ■■■■ also is that all your correspondence you send to them you do recorded delivery however all theirs is sent back to you 2nd class :unamused: :confused:
All in all it took me 6 month of ■■■■■■■ about to get my entitlement back.
Luckily my company were brilliant and found me work in our warehouse until it all got sorted.
