South East London Community Eyecare

Easy Eye Care Pathway

About the Easy Eyecare Pathway

We are pleased to have launched the Easy Eye Care Pathway across South East London. Participating opticians are listed below. You can also use the practice locator’s interactive map to find your nearest practices.

• You don’t have to be able to read or speak to have an eye test.
• Adults with a learning disability are 10x more likely to have a problem with their eyes.
• The eye test is not just about glasses – it detects eye conditions and general health conditions as well.

This is a specialist eye care service for people with learning disabilities and autistic people of all ages, who are registered with a South East London GP. The service provides:

• Longer eye tests or multiple appointments, where needed.
• An easy to understand report about your eyes.
• Local optometrists and dispensing opticians who have had extra training.

The assessment is NHS-funded and there is help towards the cost of glasses if
you’re eligible.

5 Steps to Having an Eye Test

  1. Choose your optician from the list below
  2. When booking the appointment, explain it is for the Easy Eye Care service
  3. Ask if you are entitled to a free NHS sight test
  4. Fill in SeeAbility’s “About Me and My Eyes” form to give to the optometrist. You can request this from your opticians practice or download it from our
    website: www.seeability.org/myeyes
  5. Go along for your eye test.
