Following extensive engagement with LOCs and the LOCSU team, as outlined in the LOCSU Transformation Update, we are now recruiting for four Regional Optometry Partners to begin in Summer 2026.
LOCSU is the Local Optical Committee Support Unit, supporting Local Optical Committees (LOCs) in England across a range of activities relating to primary eye care. Our work includes policy work and lobbying, pathway development, commissioning support, governance and compliance support, communication and training.
We drive innovative thinking about present and future opportunities and challenges within the primary eye care sector, to meet the changing needs of LOCs. Our role as an eye health innovator sees us work in collaboration with a wide range of partners across the optical and wider health sectors to enhance and promote the role of LOCs and primary eye care among health decision makers.
One year on, we are pleased to report resounding success against LOC identified priorities, but the work is far from over.
