The Medical Director stated that lots of Nigerians complain that they don’t get the type of customer service they need, the prescription of frames, type of eye care required, and we are here as a UK standard clinic to offer them the best treatment in line with global best practices.

“We are working towards opening another branch at the Lekki and Ikeja districts of Lagos State, to effectively provide our high standard services to Nigerians that desire quality eye care services. Patients who are desirous of SpecSMART services should contact the clinic through the official Email: info@specsmart.ng, the website www.specsmart.ng, and the phone number 01 521 2807,” Dr. Clarence stated.

According to him, there will be 24 hours automated appointment scheduler via the clinic’s website platform, 12-hour online customer care service, and eye care plans according to customers’ budgets and preferences, from skilled, licensed optometrists that would guarantee top-notched optometric and optical services to achieve accurate diagnoses.

With the unveiling of SpecSMART, patients seeking eye care treatment outside the country and within would now have access to excellent services in line with global best practices, as the clinic would also be extended to other parts of the country to meet the dire needs of patients.

Against this backdrop, the World Health Organisation (WHO) at the 74th World Health Assembly in 2021 pointed out that more than 800 million people in the globe have eye defects that could be addressed with the appropriate pair of spectacles, while an estimated 100 million people have moderate-to-severe distance vision impairment or blindness that could be corrected through access to cataract surgery.

It posits that to ameliorate the situation, there is a need for the provision of quality eye care services for underserved populations.
