Children’s vision screening is an important part of childhood. All children in the UK should have access to school vision screening at age 4-5 years old as a standard. #NationalEyeHealthWeek @BIOS_Orthoptics @UCLeye @Moorfields
On the occasion of #NationalEyeHealthWeek (23-29 Sep) we asked our experts at @UCLeye to offer insights on the importance of eye care for #publichealth. Here is @Vijay_Tailor on why routine eye tests and vision screening are fundamental to maintaining #eyehealth. #VisionMatters
