How's your eyesight?
Leading eye specialists have told 5 News that Britain’s children are at increased risk of becoming short-sighted.
5 News' @peterofthelane has been finding what could be causing this.

Our Myopia Management Clinic was on Channel 5 News today! Clinic Lead Kathryn Webber, and Visiting teaching staff member Jenny Capozio discussed the increasing number of children becoming myopic. Great to raise the awareness of myopia with the general public!

Optoms and final year students: looks like we'll have to start telling every patient they have to report to the DVLA. Also, Esotropia has become Estropia, and an esophoria with double vision is now classified as a monocular condition. gov.uk/eye-conditions-and-dr… 🤦 #Optometry

Great piece by @BBC_Future in their Family Tree series. The article focuses on Shortsightedness/Myopia, and why it's increasing. We're really pleased that our Lecturer Neema Ghorbani-Mojarrad was able to contribute! bbc.com/future/article/20220… #optometry #myopia
