"No one is too disabled to have an eye test"

I'm learning so much from the eye care conversations, such as about barriers to everyone being able to have a sight test.

What are your thoughts? Do you have examples of good practice to share? future.nhs.uk/EyeCareCommu... #SolvingTogether

Graphic shows a man and a woman sat a table. The man is on the left and looking ahead, the woman is looking to the side and smiling. The NHS lozenge is on the top right. Text in blue on an orange background reads Improving Eye are ideas already posted Text beneath that in white text on a blue background reads Making eye care available for all Text beneath that in orange text on a blue background reads Donna O'Brien, See Ability said: below that text in white on a blue background reads Sight problems are the most common comorbidity that people with learning disabilities experience. There is a 'double whammy' in that levels of sight loss rise even further with severity of learning disability... some of these patients may not be able to say there is an issue, meaning there is a risk of "diagnostic overshadowing." "

How can we make sure eye care is available for all?

Thank you to Donna at @seeability.bsky.social for sharing this idea.
