This week marks National Eye Health Week, an important opportunity to raise awareness of the value of good eye health and why regular eye tests are essential for everyone.

Vision really matters. For many people, the thought of losing their sight is one of their greatest fears. Regular eye checks can help detect changes in vision early and prevent complications.

Did you know? A sight test can identify more than just vision changes—it can also spot health conditions such as diabetes, glaucoma, and high blood pressure.

Tips for keeping your eyes healthy:

  • Don’t smoke

  • Eat a balanced diet

  • Wear sunglasses to protect your eyes from bright sunlight

For diabetic patients, our short video shows what to expect during an eye screening appointment with our Diabetic Eye Screening Team, helping to make the process clear and reassuring.

Taking care of your eyes today can help preserve your vision for the future - book your eye test and prioritise your eye health.
