On benefits? Your eye test and glasses can be free

If you get Universal Credit (within the earnings limits), income-related ESA, Pension Credit Guarantee Credit or some other benefits, your NHS eye test is free and you'll usually get an NHS optical voucher too. Choose from our voucher range at no cost, or put the voucher towards any frame and pay the difference. More about benefits and eye tests.
