MP visit for Kelcher Optometrists

Enhanced services available at high street optical practices were showcased to Gavin Williamson, MP for South Staffordshire, when he visited Kelcher Optometrists in Great Wyrley, Staffordshire.

Optometrist and practice owner Michaela Kelcher explained the health benefits of regular eye tests and shared care schemed during the drop-in.

Williamson said: ‘I had such an interesting time visiting Kelcher Optometrists. It was wonderful to visit a practice which has been providing such an important service in Great Wyrley. I was fascinated to discover than an eye test can pick up other health problems such as high blood pressure and diabetes. Good eyesight is something we only notice we have when it’s gone.’
