Primary Eyecare Services is proud to be participating in Race Equality Week, which takes place next week between 6 and 12 February 2023.
Race Equality Week will unite thousands of organisations in action to address race inequality in the workplace.
What a fantastic Peer Review organised by the LOC for our local Optoms, DOs and CLOs carried out by Lyndon Taylor.
A great turnout and great discussions had by all.
Topics discussed ranged from DVLA visual driving standards, contact lenses and ocular pathology.
Our research has revealed that 71% of respondents didn't realise that it's illegal to sell contact lenses without a prescription unless supervised by a registered #optometrist, dispensing optician or doctor in the UK.
