Thanks for supporting this vital campaign

[Eye Health Week @myvisionmatters]

Three quarters of older people who suffer a fall as a result of poor vision had a visual impairment that was easily correctable. This could be a simple as getting a new prescription for your glasses or having cataract surgery. #FallsPrevention #EyeWeek #VisionMatters

[RNIB Campaigns @RNIB_campaigns]

Clinic delays are causing sight loss, but you can help stop this. We're calling on the Government to take action to prevent essential eye health appointment delays. Write to your MP now! @EyeHealthAPPG @RNIB #EyeWeek #NEHW https://t.co/rsAMAyvWu7

[NICE @NICEComms]
