Overview
- George recalls being sent to A&E and spending a week in hospital after a 2022 episode of sudden blurriness, which clinicians told her was likely related to diabetes that was not yet fully diagnosed.
- She says distance vision is clear but reading remains blurred, so she uses reading glasses and varifocals for driving and avoids night driving because of blind spots.
- Her Spotlight profile now lists her as visually impaired, and she notes initial concern about casting alongside improving access and supportive colleagues during recent stage work.
- She continues performing, with a role in Cinderella at the Grand Opera House in York this December.
- Her advocacy includes a Vista magazine cover for National Eye Health Week and recording literature for the RNIB’s 90th celebrations.
