What is Starting Point?
Starting Point is a leaflet for parents of babies and children who are newly diagnosed with an eye condition. It has been produced by a collaboration of support charities and introduces this FAQ website along with Helplines for supportive organisations which can help you with any questions you may have around your child’s diagnosis and provide information on other support and services available to you. Starting Point is usual given to families when they visit an eye clinic.
Copies can be downloaded from the Guide Dogs website.
