National Eye Health Week 21–27 September 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.
Eye Health UK, the charity responsible for running National Eye Health Week (NEHW), is inviting LOCs to come together with their local community to focus on action for good eye health during the Week, which takes place 21-27 September 2026.
