So, if you’re due an eye appointment or something doesn’t seem quite right, get in touch with your local optician today.

Accessing the right eye care services

Research by Deloitte revealed that referrals for those with suspected eye diseases such as glaucoma and age-related macular degeneration fell by thousands during 2020. In most cases, this was down to a reluctance of patients to visit their optician, as well as patients who were potentially shielding or vulnerable.

Many eye conditions have no symptoms until it’s too late, which is why regular eye examinations are so important. Moreover, attending non-routine appointments for treatment is crucial to prevent avoidable sight loss. In addition, follow-up treatments for glaucoma, diabetic retinopathy and more are vital to ensure your vision and eye health remains as transparent and healthy as possible.
