I am the Eye Clinic Liaison Officer (ECLO) working at Musgrove Park Hospital and my job role is to support patients with sight loss, as well as their families or carers. I provide emotional and practical support, as well as onward referrals for other services deemed appropriate. I can offer this support either face-to-face or via the telephone.

I work closely with Consultant Ophthalmologists to go through CVI forms (if the person meets the criteria for this), as well as working with the local sensory loss team and other local and national services.

Type of provision

Specialist - This is for a small group of people with significant special educational needs and disabilities and their families
