Spectacle wearers wanted

Actress Kara Tointon was chosen to launch Specsavers' nationwide search for the Spectacle Wearer of the Year 2011.

On launching the campaign, the Strictly Come Dancing winner and former Eastenders actress said: 'Glasses are my friend because not only have they helped me see, they have also helped me counter my dyslexia through the use of coloured lenses which aid me in learning my lines for acting out scenes.'
