Are you entitled to a NHS eye test?

You qualify for a free NHS-funded sight test if:

•    you’re under 16
•    you’re under 19 and in full-time education
•    you’re 60 or over
•    you’re registered as blind or partially sighted
•    you’ve been diagnosed with diabetes or glaucoma
•    you’re 40 or over, and your mother, father, brother, sister, son or daughter has been diagnosed with glaucoma
•    you’ve been advised by an ophthalmologist (eye doctor) that you’re at risk of glaucoma
 

When you visit one of our opticians for your sight test, tell us that you’re entitled to a free NHS sight test, and we will give you a form to fill in and sign. 

You may also be entitled to an NHS voucher towards the cost frames or lenses.
