💓👁 Today is Day One of National Eye Health Week 2025.👁💓

More than 2 million people in the UK are living with sight loss, that is severe enough to have a significant impact on their daily lives. Half of this sight loss is avoidable.

👁 A sight test can detect early signs of conditions like glaucoma, which can be treated if found soon enough
👁 During a sight test, other health conditions such as diabetes or high blood pressure may be detected.
👁 For healthy eyes, eat well, stay active, don’t smoke and protect your eyes when the UV Index rises to 3 or more.
