We're supporting the College of Optometrists' campaign to encourage parents and carers to take their child for a sight test before they start school. Eye tests are a quick and easy routine health check that can help detect eye conditions early, when treatment is most likely to have the best possible outcome. 

Every child deserves the best start in life. LOCSU’s model pathways for children’s integrated eye care services allow for the early intervention and management of poor vision. Delivering care closer to home reduces health inequalities to give children the best start.
