A beautician says a Boots eye test saved her life - after it led to her being diagnosed with a large tumour on the brain. Katie Dunn, 30, says the meningioma could have been 'both life-changing and even life-limiting' if it had been left undetected.
The tumour was found after an optician noticed abnormalities during a routine test and referred Katie for an MRI scan. Katie, who owns her own business, said: "I feel like the eye test saved my life and eyesight.
"As if it was left any longer, I could have lost my vision completely due to it pressing on my optic nerve." Katie, from Hampshire, was sent for an MRI scan in February 2021 after going to a Boots in Romsey.
