Why become an Eye Promise Member?

Eye Promise is a national mark of distinction created by the Association for Independent Optometrists and Dispensing Opticians (AIO), designed to help the public identify practices that offer the highest quality of eye care. AIO as an independent body is passionate about promoting the importance of thorough, regular eye examinations, will ensure all Eye Promise subscribers live up to the Eye Promise quality mark.
