College calls for member feedback on revised patient leaflets

The College provides a range of patient resources for members to use in practice, helping them to provide the highest standards of patient care. These include user-friendly patient leaflets and info sheets explaining common eye conditions and how they can be managed. These are regularly reviewed to ensure they remain current, clear and the definitive source of optometric patient information. The leaflets are also reviewed by the Patient Information Forum and the Plain English Campaign to ensure that they meet their stringent accreditation standards.

Following our latest review, the College has made significant changes to the following leaflets, and is asking members to provide their feedback by completing the relevant surveys:

• Myopia management: View the leaflet and complete the survey
• Macular degeneration: View the leaflet and complete the survey
• Glaucoma: View the leaflet and complete the survey
• Angle closure glaucoma: View the leaflet and complete the survey.

The deadline for feedback is Friday 27 January 2023.
