Whether you are in the UK or off on holiday, it is likely you are experiencing the heat!

Whilst the sunshine can be great for most people, it is also important to beware of some of the risks posed to children's eye sight.

Children’s eyes are more sensitive to UV light because they have larger pupils and clearer lenses.
This August is children's eye health and safety month so we are sharing key information about keeping young eyes safe! You can find out more from our website by clicking below
