What do we mean by Eye Clinic support?
This is a service that provides information and advice to people in an eye clinic about services that may be able to support them in their area. This can be an ECLO/Vision Support Officer or similar role, a Helpdesk, or a volunteer service.
What is an ECLO (Eye Clinic Liaison Officer) Patient Support, Sight Loss Adviser?
An ECLO, Vision Support Worker (Sight Loss Adviser) works directly with people with low vision, deteriorating vision, sight loss or impending sight loss, and their carers. The support is both practical and emotional, is for people of all ages and is extended to carers and family members. They provide timely one to one support and quality information and advice, emotional support and access to other statutory and voluntary services. ECLOs connect people with the practical and emotional support they need to understand their diagnosis, deal with their sight loss and maintain their independence. The ECLO has the time to dedicate to people following their appointment, so they can discuss the impact their condition will have on their life.
