Eye injury

Category: Eye health

Topic: Injuries

Maintaining eye health helps prevent loss of vision later in life. Having an eye examination with an Optometrist or an Ophthalmologist will enable early detection of eye disease. Appointments can be made directly with an Optometrist. Referrals to an Ophthalmologist should be made by a GP or Optometrist.
