At this time of year we often spend a lot of time sorting things out for other people but it's very important to look after your own health. Regular sight tests are an important part of looking after yourself, they help you get the most from your vision and can spot other, non-ocular, conditions.

Many patients are eligible for NHS sight tests, including all under 16s and over 60s. Sight tests are now more accessible for universal credit claimants, as for most patients HC forms are not needed anymore. For more information on eligibility visit:
