Post 6/6
So if you can, each day: notice the beauty around you, hold loved ones closer, prioritise what truly brings you joy, and practise softer, less extreme ways of thinking.
Wishing you all the very best for 2026 โ may we stay as healthy and loved as possible.
Post 5/6
This experience has reshaped what matters to me. It feels like humanity is at a critical point, where extremes are colliding and weโve lost our sense of balance.
Post 4/6
Iโm deeply grateful for my support system โ my wonderful husband and son, my family, an amazing GP, and the exceptional team at Moorfields Eye Hospital. Their care has carried me through.
Post 3/6
This year Iโve begun losing my sight due to retinal damage linked to a (currently) unexplained neurological disorder. Itโs been unsettling and has had a profound impact on both my work and personal life.
Post 2/6
On a personal note, Iโve been incredibly fortunate to lead two large UK trials (SIGHT and EyeFocus). At the same time, life delivered a sharp reminder of its fragility.
Post 1/6
2025 has been a year of extremes โ in our personal lives and across the world.

Thanks to brilliant clinical teams and lived-experience advisors, the trial is truly inclusive!
