@livuninews @LivuniILCaMS @LivUni @ManMetUni @LivUniHLS Good to see further developments in AI and the eye in #diabetes. The eye shows signs for diabetic nerve disease in the feet, eye and brain.

A huge honour to receive my MBE last week in Windsor Castle @Royalfamily on behalf of all in Liverpool working to prevent #blindness. The Prince of Wales was impressed by our ground-breaking work on retinal diseases over 30+ years. @StPaulsEyenews @LivuniILCaMS

@StPaulsNews @louiseckenny Congratulations. Hugely well deserved for all you’ve done for @livuniHLS and wider research in the NHS

[Simon Harding @SimonPHarding]

@StPaulsNews Good to know. Such a part of our history. Hadn't realised the structure hidden in the wall of the previous Clinical Eye Research Centre.

An amusing error that we also saw in @ISDRstudy with significant numbers of v short people w 4 figure BMIs.

So I’m not getting a vaccine next week - was feeling weird about why I’d been selected ahead of others so rang GP to check. Turns out they had my height as 6.2cm rather than 6 ft 2, giving me a BMI of 28,000 😂

@GranadaReports @AnnaYoussefITV @CollegeOptomUK @hheyecare Sure we're seeing missed eye disease in the hospital clinics as well. Coronavision a good way to describe all the wider eye effects of 2020.

Two-year eye tests 'enough for most diabetics' as 80 per cent do not need annual reviews https://t.co/48XXEU4o7J via @MailOnline. Today's MailOnSunday article - we can reduce the number of screening tests for people with low risk and to focus on those at high risk @ISDRstudy
