Drwy gydol y pandemig, mae cleifion wedi gallu cael mynediad at wasanaethau gofal sylfaenol optometreg, ac mae hyn cael ei gefnogi gan y defnydd o dechnoleg ddigidol ar gyfer ymgynghoriadau o bell drwy alwadau ffôn a fideo. Bydd hyn bellach yn dod yn rhan greiddiol o ddarparu’r gwasanaeth, pan fo'n briodol. Mae optometreg yn gwneud cynnydd da o ran adfer gwasanaethau. Rydym eisoes yn gweld niferoedd cynyddol o gleifion a disgwylir i hyn gyrraedd yr un lefelau â chyn y pandemig yn ystod y misoedd nesaf.
Throughout the pandemic, patients have been able to access optometry primary care services and this has been supported through the use of digital technology for remote consultations by phone and video call.  This will now become a core part of service delivery, when appropriate. Optometry is making good progress in restoring services.  We are already seeing increased numbers of patients and this is set to reach pre-pandemic levels in the coming months.
