The General Optical Council has approved three final SPOKE projects to support the transition to updated education and training standards for optometry, dispensing optics, and specialist qualifications.

These include guidance on fitness to train and reasonable adjustments, a toolkit to help learners integrate into multidisciplinary teams, and support for learners from diverse backgrounds pursuing specialist qualifications.

Optical professionals, these resources aim to enhance training and inclusivity while upholding patient safety. Your involvement is essentialโ€”engage with these developments to help shape the future of optical education.

SPOKEโ€™s work will continue under a new three-year contract starting August 2025.

New NHS data highlights stark disparities in ophthalmology waiting times across England, with patients in the most deprived areas more likely to wait over 52 weeks for treatment than those in more affluent regions.

For the first time, figures have been broken down by age, s*x, ethnicity, and deprivation level. In the most deprived areas, 1.9% of patients faced waits of a year or more for eye careโ€”compared to 1.4% in the least deprived. Ophthalmology also accounts for the largest proportion of NHS waiting list cases among over-65s, making up 14% of this group.

Optical professionalsโ€”these findings point to increasing strain on eye care services and highlight the urgency of addressing inequality in access to treatment. Driving change starts with informed, local action.

What steps are being taken in your region to reduce delays and prioritise those most in need?

A major UK advance in ophthalmology could reshape IRD diagnosis. Eye2Gene, an AI tool developed by UCL and Heidelberg Engineering, uses multimodal imaging to identify the gene most likely responsible for inherited retinal diseases (IRDs), enabling quicker diagnoses and improved access to genetic counselling.

Optical pharmacy professionals: Now integrated with Heidelbergโ€™s platforms, Eye2Gene provides real-time gene suggestions from SPECTRALISยฎ scans. With 83% top-5 prediction accuracy, this tool supports earlier, more precise IRD interventionโ€”particularly in settings with limited specialist access.

Covering 63 genes and over 90% of European IRD cases, Eye2Gene supports diagnosis without replacing genetic testingโ€”improving diagnostic efficiency and care outcomes.

Could this change how you support IRD patients? Read the study and share your insights.

The platform, developed by University College London and Heidelberg Engineering, demonstrated accuracy and precision in early tests.

This marks a major achievement for the university, now recognised as the first in the North East to offer GOC-approved optometry programmes.

Students who successfully complete the BSc qualification can undertake a pre-registration training period with a practice before applying to the GOC for registration. The MOptom degree meets current GOC standards, enabling graduates to join the professional register immediately upon completion.

However, the BSc pathway is no longer accepting new students, as the university has moved to adapt to the GOCโ€™s new education and training requirements.

22/07/2025

A new study from the University of Edinburgh has introduced an AI-based method to measure nearsightedness more preciselyโ€”enhancing the prediction of long-term risk for retinal detachment and other complications.

The metric, known as Fundus Refraction Offset (FRO), compares the retinaโ€™s appearance to what would typically be expected from a patientโ€™s glasses prescription. Patients whose retinas appeared more myopic than expected faced a significantly higher risk of retinal damage.

Optical professionals: This tool offers a more refined way to assess myopia severityโ€”enabling more personalised care and informed surgical decisions. Using data from over 9,300 UK Biobank participants, the study revealed a 50% increase in retinal disease risk for each step lower in the FRO score.

Dr Fabian Yii describes the findings as a major shift in how myopia risk should be managed.

Optical professionalsโ€”stay ahead of the curve. Could FRO reshape how you assess myopia risk in your practice?

A combination of routine eye scans and AI has created a powerful new way of measuring nearsightedness to better predict peopleโ€™s long-term risk of serious retinal damage, a new study suggests.

A national Eye Care Support Pathway has been launched to strengthen support for children and young people with visual impairments across England.

Developed by Guide Dogs alongside more than 20 sector partners, the pathway guides families through each stage of the sight loss journeyโ€”from initial concerns and diagnosis to post-diagnosis support and transition to adult services.

For optical professionals, it offers a clear framework to support early identification, timely referral, and consistent care planningโ€”highlighting your essential role in paediatric sight care.
โ€œThis is a crucial part of the jigsaw to ensure families get the support they need,โ€ said Eleanor Briggs, Head of Policy at Guide Dogs.

Optical professionalsโ€”are your services aligned with the new national pathway? Discover how it could strengthen your approach to patient care.

The General Optical Council has confirmed a three-year extension to the Knowledge Hubโ€”run by SPOKEโ€”securing continued support for providers delivering Education and Training Requirements (ETR) through to July 2028.

Backed by ยฃ210,000 in strategic funding, the hub will continue offering practical tools across optometry, dispensing optics, contact lens practice, and prescribing qualifications.

Optical professionalsโ€”this move comes as the first ETR-compliant student cohorts prepare to graduate. The aim? Stronger, more consistent delivery of modernised optical education.

The Royal National Institute of Blind People (RNIB) is urging eye care professionals across the UK to take part in a new survey aimed at identifying gaps in low vision services.

With no national database currently in place, this quick 10-minute survey will help map out where support is availableโ€”and where it's missing. The findings will be vital in pressing healthcare commissioners to improve access to care.

Optical professionalsโ€”your insight is essential. Whether you work in one area or across several, your input will help paint a clearer picture of low vision service provision across the country.

The Association of Optometrists (AOP) is supporting the initiative through its Transforming Eyecare for Older People platform. Paul Alexander, AOPโ€™s policy and governance manager, said the data will be used to advocate for real improvements in service delivery.

Make your voice count. Share your experience and help strengthen low vision care in the UK.

The RNIBโ€™s survey will be used as evidence in a mapping exercise that will seek to end the โ€˜postcode lotteryโ€™ for low vision support in the UK

Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is a leading cause of vision loss in those over 50, affecting central vision. Dry AMD progresses slowly, while wet AMD causes rapid deterioration.

Risk factors include aging, poor diet, smoking, and UV exposure. Treatments such as AREDS2 supplements for dry AMD and eye injections for wet AMD can slow progression. Magnifiers and improved lighting help patients maintain independence.

Optical professionals, early detection and guidance are key in preserving AMD patientsโ€™ quality of life. Stay informed to provide optimal care.

๐Ÿ‘‰ Share with your team and ensure patients get the support they need.
