View submission: Are opticians just glorified salesman's now?
Are the vouchers you mention for NHS staff? Asking as I’m due an eye test and would like to make it cheaper if possible lol

NHS vouchers are applied when you've got certain levels of vision.
I get them coz my eyes are pretty crap and the voucher gets me £90 off. It's applied automatically if your eligible

If you work for the NHS your trust will pay for a free eye test and quite possibly give you a voucher towards glasses. Check your trust intranet.

Nah, it's just the 'you get it free for being a diabetic' or I also get the tests free from work.. but it still doesn't cover that extra £40 they charge.
