👁️ 𝗗𝗶𝗱 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗸𝗻𝗼𝘄? Almost 1 in 4 parents are unaware that NHS sight tests for children are FREE!

Regular sight tests are crucial for early detection and management of vision issues. It’s recommended that all children should have their eyes tested by an optometrist (optician) once a year.

There are plenty of ways to test children’s sight if they aren’t yet at reading level!

Children under 16 are entitled to a free NHS funded eye examination every year. They're also eligible for an NHS optical voucher to help towards the cost of glasses or contact lenses.

👁 Understanding your eye health is as important as regular check-ups. Today, we're shedding light on Age-related Macular Degeneration (AMD).

Age-related macular degeneration is a condition that affects the macula, the central part of the retina responsible for clear vision. There are two main types of AMD often termed 'Dry AMD' and 'Wet AMD'. The dry form is more common, but the wet form is usually more sudden and devastating to the vision.

❓ Who is affected by age-related macular degeneration?
Age-related macular degeneration primarily affects older adults, particularly those over 50. Individuals with a family history of AMD, smokers, and those with a poor diet lacking in fruit and veg are at higher risk.

❓ What are the symptoms of age-related macular degeneration?
As the condition progresses it causes blurred or reduced central vision, making it difficult to read or recognise faces. AMD affects only the central area of the vision, so the condition never causes complete blindness or loss of sight.

❓ How do you treat age-related macular degeneration?
There is no cure for AMD, but its progression can be managed. Studies have shown evidence that a diet rich in antioxidants and certain pigments (found in dark green vegetables like broccoli and kale) may reduce the risk of progression. In some cases, advanced treatments like anti-VEGF injections may be recommended to preserve vision in the early stages of the disease.

𝗕𝗼𝗼𝗸 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝘀𝗶𝗴𝗵𝘁 𝘁𝗲𝘀𝘁 𝘁𝗼𝗱𝗮𝘆: Don’t wait until your vision is impaired. Regular eye check-ups can make all the difference.

❎ 𝗠𝗬𝗧𝗛: You only need an eye test if you notice problems with your vision.

✅ 𝗙𝗔𝗖𝗧: Regular eye tests are essential to detect potential eye conditions and diseases, ensure optimal eye health, and even uncover underlying health issues!

The main purpose of an eye test is to check the health of your eyes. An eye test can identify numerous general health problems and early signs of eye conditions before you're aware of any symptoms. If diagnosed early, many eye conditions can be treated.

Aside from eye health, comprehensive eye exams can also reveal signs of systemic health problems, such as diabetes, high blood pressure, and even some cancers. Optometrists are trained to identify these signs, so it’s important to book regular appointments for eye tests, especially as you get older.

As a general rule, it is recommended that you have an eye test every two years. But if you’re over 40, have chronic eye problems, or fast changing prescriptions, you’ll need an eye test more often.

• They avoid reading, writing, or drawing
• They sit very close to the TV
• They don’t do as well as they should at school
