Wishing a Happy Hanukkah to all our patients, staff and volunteers celebrating the Festival of Lights.

As Hanukkah begins, we reflect on the themes of light, resilience, and hope, while acknowledging with deep sadness the tragic events at Bondi Beach in Sydney this weekend. Our thoughts are with all those affected, and with the emergency services, hospitals and healthcare teams who have been responding.

It’s International Volunteer Day – and at Friends of Moorfields we love to celebrate it 🎉

Except for Antarctica, we have volunteers from every continent in the world! And between us, we speak at least 30 languages other than English.

Diversity makes us stronger. We learn from each other. We see things from different perspectives. We become more aware. It helps us better support patients.

Happy International Volunteer Day to all of our volunteers. And thank you for everything you do for patients at Moorfields!

Congratulations to everyone associated with SPARC for being shortlisted for the prestigious HFMA (Healthcare Financial Management Association) awards!

This is in the Delivering Value with Digital Technologies category, which recognises innovative digital initiatives that reduce costs, increase productivity or improve patient care.

SPARC is our single point of access initiative in central London (in collaboration with Royal Free Hospitals) and parts of north east London, in association with our digital solution, CrossCover, and it delivers all three of these.

It enables local optometrists to refer directly, routing them to the patient's preferred hospital for triage and management. This pathway improves referral processing and patient safety, and reduces the patient’s journey time from point of referral to hospital appointment, as well as lowering the burden on GPs. It also ensures that referrals get to a suitable ophthalmology provider as quickly as possible, factoring in patient journey, patient preference and availability.

The winners will be announced on Thursday 4 December at the Gala Dinner, during their Annual Conference.

We wish you every success!

Scientific understanding of the link between the eye and the rest of the body is expanding rapidly through the field of .

Pioneered by Moorfields Eye Hospital and UCL Institute of Ophthalmology with INSIGHT, Oculomics uses ocular biomarkers to detect systemic conditions, typically through analysis of large-scale datasets containing both eye and systemic disease information.

Now available through INSIGHT at Moorfields, the Eye Dementia Dataset provides a valuable Oculomics resource for researchers investigating how eye biomarkers could be used for earlier detection of dementia onset and monitoring of disease progression.

The dataset contains secondary care data for some 230,000 patients with dementia diagnosis, attending routine appointments at Moorfields Eye Hospital.

INSIGHT encourages data access applications from researchers in the NHS, academia, industry, policy, charities, biotech and beyond, who are working to advance eye health research for the benefit of patients and wider society. INSIGHT also provides clinical expertise through research consultancy for the development of medical AI, supported by the leadership of INSIGHT director Pearse Keane, who is Professor of Artificial Medical Intelligence at UCL and a consultant ophthalmologist at Moorfields.
