cataract surgeons

I would like to find a top Eye Cataract Specialist for a 2nd opinion. Would appreciate any info on that .
,I had cataract surgery beginning of June. My eye has been uncomfortable ever since. I have been back to see the surgeon twice and the scans (he says) show my eye is ok It was done at the Southampton General Eye Clinic.
however, it is always watering, and the wind is now having a dramatic effect on it. I have bought some 'wrap around' sunglasses from M&S, because I just could not find any in the opticians that came around the sides tight enough. My eye is often aching. I have been give HYLO lubricating drops which help, but now the weather is getting cooler, I just cannot stay outside at all. I seem to always have a pain on the outer side of my eye, and the vision on that very outer corner can go blurry. but on the whole my vision is vastly improved. Does anyone have similar problems. More importanly could someone tell me names of the top Eye Specialist in this field. I will go private, and have to get this sorted whatever it costs.

I used to see Mr Iain Chisholm at Southampton Eye Hospital but I believe he has retired now and maybe the hospital has closed. I had my cataract done in Bridgend in 1992. I had to have a general anaesthetic because I was young! I now see Mr Mark Freeman, who does have Private Patients. He hasn't operated on me, so I don't know what he is like but, as a person and as a Consultant, he is kind, gentle and he listens. He appears to keep up to date with research.
The only other thing I can suggest, is Moorfields but I don't have any names for you.
Try PALS first
