National Eye Health Week takes shape

Moorfields Eye Hospital is marking National Eye Health Week with a new campaign encouraging patients to keep their eyes healthy and avoid eye infections – joining the wider optical profession in boosting awareness next week.

The hospital’s Yes Eye Did campaign will run for the whole of National Eye Health Week, from September 21 to September 27.

Advice and information will be provided online about how to spot eye infections and the role of eye tests in showing early signs of serious disease, and the hospital was encouraging people to make donations to help surgeons save patients’ sight.
