Can I get a free NHS eye test?
Free NHS home eye tests are available for those who can't visit an optician alone due to health or mobility concerns and meet the NHS criteria. Many of our customers qualify for NHS-funded eye tests for reasons such as:
- being 60 years old or older,
- being diabetic,
- having glaucoma or being at risk (for instance, due to a family history of the condition),
- being registered as partially sighted or blind.
Don't worry if you're not sure, our friendly team can check eligibility for you. Just click the button below, complete the form and we'll give you a call back to explain all the options.
If NHS funding isn't available for you, private tests are available for just £60.
