Is it better for these women to visit a clinic regularly to have the pessary checked or do this themselves at home? New research investigates: evidence.nihr.ac.uk/alert/pelvic-oā€¦

Researchers investigated eye donation practice in end of life care and found that service users support these discussions.

Findings suggest clinicians may need training to understand the process of eye donation and to handle conversations sensitively.
