Wessex Local Eye Health Network is carrying out an eye health needs assessment for Hampshire, Dorset and the Isle of Wight.  The aim is to describe what eye health services are currently provided across the region, and to assess how well they meet the local needs. Services will include those provided by hospitals, optometrists, GP’s, local authorities, school nurses and charities.
 
The Network are particularly interested in the experiences of local patients and users of eye health services.  Which work well? Do any need improvement? Do pathways work smoothly, or are there gaps?
 
Would you or someone you know be willing to tell your story? 

Their hope is that by illustrating the real-world implications of the services, they can influence commissioners, local authorities and practitioners to make recommended changes recommended or to take the time to examine the issue themselves.
