I was kinda hoping a name like Aleister Crowley, or a Rothschild might show up in those hospital records somehow.
But with all of those Hollywood types there might be something interesting to look into.

I was hoping that too, Kalam, but having difficulty establishing which was the relevant Liverpudlian one we are after. They have had an eye hospital and of course others.

I found this general Liverpool history link: http://www.localhistories.org/liverpool.html
Here are historical pix:

Wasn’t convinced this is the relevant hospital, although it is interesting:

This is one of the links I mentioned earlier, which could possible be helpful in other UK researches for that area:
http://discovery.nationalarchives.gov.uk/details/a?_ref=138
Has simple map at top right
Searchable collections info includes: Businesses (204)
Persons (569)
Organizations (672)
Diaries (62)
Families (20)
Paper catalogues available to view at The National Archives - (242)
Accessions
Catalog
I have not searched each of those categories.
And finally this one has other archival/geneological data links:
http://liverpool.gov.uk/libraries/archives-family-history/
There are definitely some interesting names in the national archival site. Did not see Crowley or Rothschild.
I did not even scratch the surface of where we might be wanting to go on this one. If I could nail down the hospital, then I could begin looking at the historical boards etc. It seems there was a big revamping and regrouping of hospitals there in 60-s or 70-s if I’m remembering correctly.

I thought it said there were three hospitals that combined in 1938. It might be tough to get individuals names during that time. It sounds like there was damage during the war.
I bookmarked the site http://discovery.nationalarchives.gov.uk/details/a?_ref=138 to take a longer look at when I can.
It may be just another rabbit hole but it is something one can pursue to some sort of conclusion.
