Asda Opticians partners with RNIB

 A new partnership between Asda Opticians and the Royal National Institute of Blind People (RNIB) will increase access to support, information and advice for people living with sight loss.

 Dr Louise Gow, head of eye health, optometry and low vision at RNIB, said: ‘By partnering with Asda Opticians with more than 150 locations nationwide, this will be a springboard to reaching more people and providing timely information and support services to make a difference.’

 The partnership will enable those with existing or new eye conditions to self-refer to the charity, and the RNIB has delivered educational sessions for optometrists at Asda Opticians to support this process.
