This clinical audit evaluates the provision of patient information. It also establishes patients' views on satisfaction regarding the information provided at nurse-led preoperative assessment prior to giving informed consent for cataract surgery. A quantitative descriptive audit was conducted using a questionnaire, by which the questions reflected the baseline standards. A convenience sample of 75 postcataract patients took part in this retrospective audit. All 75 patients stated that they were either 'very satisfied' or 'satisfied' with both the verbal explanation and written information received, and identified the preoperative assessment nurse as the main source of information.
