Looking after your eyes is important but many people are not sure of the best ways to do it – half of sight loss is preventable with early detection – so the annual National Eye Health Week ( from 24 – 30 Sept this year ) takes place to remind us all.
National Eye Health Week is organised to raise awareness inspire and educate people on the importance of eye health and inform them why they should go for regular sight tests. To mark the week staff and volunteers from Sheffield Royal Society for the Blind (SRSB) will be based at Virgin Money Lounge on Fargate from Monday 24 until Thursday 27th September offering non-medical vision screening for visitors plus information on their support services and equipment available at their centre on Mappin Street.
