The primary role of the Eyecare
Information Service is to increase understanding about the work of the
opthalmic profession, communicating with the public via the media. This
includes local and national newspapers, general and specialist interest
magazines, as well as national and local radio and TV.
The EIS supplies a range of
materials to its members that enable them to promote their own practices
as a free, reliable and impartial source of information, as well as
participating in the benefits of national marketing campaigns.
For many members of the
public, especially those who may be concerned about an eye condition or
who are apprehensive about visiting an optometrist, the Eyecare
Information Service is frequently a valuable first port of call. Via its
public helpline, the EIS is able to ally people’s fears, dispel myths
and send out useful information in the form of leaflets and fact sheets.
Our telephone service will always refer enquirers to their nearest EIS
member practice.
