Students are reminded to look after their eye health

With pupils needing to see the board or the clock in exam halls, it is important that their vision and eye health is in good condition. Research shows that over 60% of parents do not take their children to the optician to have their eyes checked.

Alex Gage says: “Healthy eyes are a vital part of successful exam preparation and it would be far better to discover if there is a problem now, when it can be so easily rectified with glasses or contact lenses, than to discover too late that there was an underlying difficulty with their eyesight.”
