NHS funds free eye tests in the UK, for millions of eligible people across England, Scotland and Wales. Excluding branch promotions, most of the free eye tests provided by high street opticians are funded by the NHS. This means that if you have an eye condition or are on a low income, you're entitled to a free eye test, with an NHS optical voucher, at least every two years. So, why not make the most of it to lower your health costs and maximise your eye care?

You are eligible for a free NHS sight test if you or your partner receive:

• Income support

• Employment and support allowance

• Pension credit guarantee credit

• Income-based Jobseeker's Allowance

• Universal credit and meet certain criteria

• Certain tax credits

You may also be entitled to a free valid NHS sight test if you have an existing eye condition, or are at risk of glaucoma. You can visit the free NHS eye tests and optical vouchers page for the full terms and FAQs. If you've already paid for a sight test but qualify for a free eye test via the NHS, you may also be able to claim a refund on your sight test fees - visit the NHS website to find out more about your entitlement to an NHS voucher. This voucher will not cover the cost of your glasses or contact lenses.
