Urgent eye care service

A new urgent eye care service provided by a network of optical practices in the community.

• The aim of the Covid-19 Urgent Eye Care Service (CUES) is to ensure people can access urgent eye care within primary care during the coronavirus pandemic.

• Presenting symptoms will typically include a red or painful eye, foreign body, sudden change in vision, or flashes and floaters which might suggest retinal detachment.

The service offers:

• Telephone/ video consultation in the first instance and self-care.
• Face to face appointments with the optometrist following telephone/video consultations for those who are presenting with urgent and higher risk symptoms (observing PPE guidance and social distancing advice)
• Signposting/referral to emergency services, as appropriate.

Patients can check for their nearest CUES optical practice at www.primaryeyecare.co.uk  

They will need to telephone the accredited optical practice.
