Many people are familiar with the warnings that smoking is bad for our health, our heart and our lungs, but did you know that it can seriously damage your eyesight?

The Association Of Optometrists is launching an awareness campaign to make people aware of the very real danger and encourage them to get their eyes checked regularly.

RNIB Connect Radio's Allan Russell spoke to Henry Leonard, Optometrist And Head Of Clinical & Regulatory, and also Roshni Kanabar, Optometrist and Clinical & Regulatory Advisor, both from the Association of Optometrists, to learn more about the dangers and how quitting the habit is a great early intervention.
