Optegra unveils new Vision of Britain report

Optegra Eye Health Group has released a new Vision of Britain eye health report.

The research found that 63% of adults have an eye test up to every two years, but that 12% of 16-24 year olds have never had an eye test. During the research, people were asked to rate their vision, with 10 being perfect and one very poor. The average score across the UK was just 6.5.

Dr. Clare O’Donnell from Optegra Eye Sciences said: ‘This report provides the latest thinking on so many eye health topics, it is an interesting read for patients and professionals alike – packed with advice, and aimed to encourage individuals to really take responsibility for their vision. We hope that our message will reach a broad audience across the UK, and encourage greater eye health.’
