Now, with up to two and a half billion people worldwide currently diagnosed with myopia, the rate of shortsightedness is estimated to rise to five billion by 2050.
With links to our current lifestyles and the rise of shortsightedness throughout the world we thought we’d focus our eyes on the business of Opticians for this week’s Industry Review.
To discuss, Gavin McLoughlin was joined by:
- Seamus Flynn, CEO of Sapphire Eyewear, from Inniscarra in Cork
- Stephen Olwell of Stephen Olwell Opticians in Longford
- Liz Grennan, Corporate Optometrist with Optical Rooms in Dublin
