Happy AHPs Day!! We've been raising awareness for Orthoptics by asking staff in the Eye Treatment Centre to catch a ball with diplopia - proving tricky for most 🤪👀

To celebrate #WorldOrthopticDay, we spoke to Anu, Lead Orthoptist, about her role.

"The best part is to see the impact on patients and families whether through individualised treatment for a single patient or through supporting a service in its ambition to help patients."
