It was so lovely to get my hair done recently. It feels like forever since it was treated.......
This made me realise that after speaking to people over the years since running this charity, hairdressing appointments, beauty appointments, and dentist appointments are kept, made regularly, but opticians aren't.
Why, I don't know, but this needs to change and become a part of your scheduled appointments, and this is why.......
Many people underestimate the importance their opticians could play in their vision and eye health. It is a very common thought that opticians can only test your vision and that people can tell themselves when their vision has worsened. This, of course, is not true.
Opticians can detect a number of eye health and body health problems from looking at your eyes alone. People do not notice small changes to their eyes, and as a result, they could be putting more strain on them than realised.
The NHS recommends that you should get your eyes tested only every 2 years (more often, if advised by your optometrist).
Do I need to say anymore? Now, let's change this. Let's schedule your opticians appointment like the previous ones mentioned. It's all about opening your eyes to a better health.
