PSP is a neuro-degenerative disorder which has devastating effects on a
person's motor system robbing them of their independence.  Awareness
of PSP is poor and it can be difficult to diagnose and can be mistaken for
other diseases.  Here Kathy Miller-Hunt, a development officer at the PSP
Association talks to David Bull about PSP and the importance of increasing
awareness among optometrists.
