Aces partners with Primary Eyecare Services

Aces has partnered with Primary Eyecare Services (PES) to offer post-operative care to its partners via the PES platform, Opera, across several Integrated Care Boards (ICBs).

These included Greater Manchester; Hampshire and Isle of Wight; Mid and South Essex; Norfolk and Waveney; North East and North Cumbria; and Nottinghamshire.

Optometry practices partnering with ACES include Asda, Boots, M&S, Scrivens and Specsavers, helping to reduce waiting times, ease pressure on secondary care and deliver care closer to home. 

The move was expected to reduce waiting times, ease pressure on secondary care and allow patients to receive appropriate care closer to home.

Stephen Hannan, clinical services director at Aces, said: ‘By referring your patients to Aces via Opera, you are ensuring your patients will be contacted on the same day, and cared for in a timely manner.’
