Eye problems
Regular eye checks
Regular eye checks are important for everyone, as some serious eye conditions do not have any visible early warning symptoms. It’s especially important to have regular eye checks with an optician or an optometrist if there is a history of eye problems in your family.
In an emergency
Contact the practice or visit the nearest A&E department immediately if you experience any of the following:
- Sudden or severe eye pain
- Loss of sight
- Lots of flashing lights
- Chemicals in your eye
- Severe eye trauma
