Information for Urgent Eye Care Services

We would like to inform you that the COVID -19 Urgent Eyecare Service (CUES service) has now been launched in Warrington.

This service is commissioned by Warrington CCG and is provided by local optical practices via the optometry federation, Primary Eyecare Services Ltd (PES) with the support of Central Mersey Local Optical Committee. It is for all patients registered with a Warrington CCG GP practice.

The primary aim of this Service is to ensure people can access urgent eyecare within primary care, utilising the established trained workforce in optical practices. This is essential to reduce demand on primary care and hospital eye services during the coronavirus (Covid-19) pandemic.

The list of accredited optical practices currently providing the service is available at https://www.primaryeyecare.co.uk using the ‘Find a practice’ tool. For your reference we have included a current list of optical practices delivering the service with this correspondence, but please note, the list is being updated regularly as more optical practices join the service, so for the most up to date information it is advisable to view the list on the website.
