Looking ahead to National Eye Health Week

As chairman of National Eye Health Week, David Cartwright knows the importance of regular eye tests. However, Cartwright is on a mission to make sure that the public understands the crucial importance of eye examinations too.

Next week marks the start of the latest edition of NEHW in which local practices from across the UK will promote the importance of eye health and the need for regular sight tests for all.

The campaign, which begins next Monday and runs until September 24, will involve several leading opticians of which some, such as Vision Express, will be offering free eye tests to members of the public.
