Spotlight on serious eye conditions

Some eye conditions are more serious than others, leading to symptoms like loss of vision or in severe cases blindness. The good news is that most eye conditions, even serious ones, can be maintained and even treated if detected early enough.

The key to this is making sure you have regular eye tests. This way, your optician can find problems with your eyes early. They can recommend the best way you can look after your eyes, whether this is a new prescription, medication or surgery.

As it’s National Eye Health Week, we’re highlighting some serious eye conditions, including symptoms and treatments.
