Minor Eye Conditions Temporary response – Information for patients

To assist with the current pressures faced as a result of COVID-19 in GP practices and hospitals, NHS Derby and Derbyshire CCG has put in place a service that enables patients with eye problems to be reviewed by an Optician.

From the information you have provided to your GP Practice, you have been advised to contact one of the Opticians listed below for advice. You can choose any of the Opticians from the list and will be able to arrange a time to speak with them.

The Optician you speak with will be able to provide advice over the telephone or via video call for managing your eye condition, arrange to see you face to face or refer you on to other services.

Please see below the list of Opticians, their contact numbers and opening times which will help you make a decision about which to contact.

The Optician will discuss any concerns you may have and respond to your questions.

IF YOU ARE ASKED TO ATTEND VILLAGE SURGERY PLEASE ENSURE THAT YOU ARE WEARING A FACE MASK.
