What is an ECLO and how do I find my nearest one?
ECLOs - Eye Clinic Liaison Officers work closely with medical and nursing staff in eye clinics, and the sensory teams in social services. They provide practical and emotional support to people who have recently been diagnosed with an eye condition to enable them to understand their diagnosis, deal with their sight loss and maintain their independence.
You can find your nearest ECLO on the Sightline Directory by entering your postcode and the search word 'ECLO'.
