An exhibition showcasing the latest sight-loss support products is returning to Southampton.
OpenSight will host its Eye Contact Exhibition on Wednesday, September 18, at St Mary's Stadium.
The free event, which will run from 10am to 4pm, is aimed at people who are at risk of or living with sight loss.
The exhibition, which is being held in partnership with Southampton Sight, will feature equipment suppliers, support organisations, and experts.
Attendees will also have the opportunity to hear from guest speaker Professor Andrew Lotery, a specialist in ophthalmology, who will discuss advancements in age-related macular degeneration and retinal research.
Debbie Ross, deputy chief executive of OpenSight, said: "The Eye Contact Exhibition is more than just an event—it’s a lifeline for those living with sight loss.
"We’re proud to host this gathering that connects people with vital resources, while also fostering a sense of community."
The event will be fully accessible, with free parking, sighted guides, and shuttle services from Southampton railway station.
