We're looking for parents (and children) to join a focus group on shortsightedness Friday 29th or Saturday 30th of April (time TBC). We'd be grateful if you could join, either virtually or in person (payment for taking part!) please share! @The_AOP@CollegeOptomUK@UniofBradford
Help us to push eye health up the political agenda! 👍We want to raise awareness of the impact of sight loss and help MPs take action.

#AlwaysBackUpYourWork My temperamental laptop decided it didn't like my 6000 word professional portfolio draft today - it ditched all but the cover page! Luckily I'd backed up and double backed-up! Phew.
We are inviting registrants to participate in online focus groups on our CET consultation. The focus groups will last for about an hour with flexible dates.
If you are interested in participating, please sign up through this link: https://t.co/nMG2Gr7GAj
Writing my #thesisjournal, reflecting on yesterday's Boris-bodge:
- Make your objectives clear at the onset
- Don't use superfluous language - say what needs to be said and nothing more
- Make sure the audience understand the message
- Don't leave room for loose interpretation
This Hallowe'en, make sure your make up and contact lenses don't end up giving you a frightful treat!

#DispensingOpticians make sure your voice is heard! The GOC have an open canvas consultation on ophthalmic dispensing for the educational strategic review. The review will directly impact future education, CET and CPD. https://t.co/0Mw0cOok3Z
And with a click of a mouse, my first year as a Prof Doc student is complete! A phenomenal transformative process which I look forward to continuing. #ProfDoc#Uni_Of_Essex
Myopia rates among children are set to increase from 300 million to 500 million by 2050. UU Researchers are working with an international consortium to determine if progression can be slowed down with daily use of eye drops. #ProudofUU https://t.co/DpZ1IfReSP
It's imperative that registrants and educators make sure their voice is heard along this review path. Barely 1.8% of those eligible responded to the last consultation!
