West Kent

The Acute Primary Care Ophthalmology Service (APCOS) is a free NHS service available to all patients registered with a West Kent GP and is provided by local specialist independent prescribing optometrists and a GP with the specialist knowledge and skills to carry out this work locally. Patients may be referred by their GP, optician or can self-refer to the APCOS service.

If you are unsure whether you qualify for this service, please contact one of the approved opticians who can offer help and advice.
