Planning to watch this week's partial solar eclipse? ☀️🌙

If you're planning to watch it, it's important to do so safely.

Looking directly at the sun can cause serious damage to your eyes. Ordinary sunglasses don't provide enough protection, and viewing the eclipse through binoculars, a camera, or a telescope still puts you at risk.

Instead, use a safe viewing method, such as a pinhole projector or certified eclipse glasses with solar filters.

This week is Myopia Awareness week.
Myopia is the scientific term for being shortsighed.
It used to be the case that we would prescribe standard spectacles for children who were shortsighted and say that it will just increase as they get older.
However, in the recent years research has shown it can be slowed down (to give a potentially lower prescription when they finish growing) by using specialist lenses (spectacle or Contact Lenses).
It is important to detect Myopia as early as possible and to keep up to date with children's eye examinations.
Book an eye examination for your child today, no child is too young!
