Title: Eye test with a bonus.
Post by: TG on May 29, 2010, 01:35:07 PM
From my time of unemployment we have an HC1 form that allows us some help with health cost etc. It runs out on the 4th of June so I thought I would get an eye test and see if I could get some discount on bins as it is due.

Good news is I have now ordered a free pair of bifocals.

On a downside the optician bloke wanted me to go straight to hospital on this lovely Saturday morning.

After a fone call to the hossy it has now been decided to refer via my GP.

Various glaucoma/cataract family history questions were asked, plus the brain tumor questions (its amazing how much medical knowledge you pick up working for a GP) to which the answers were negative.

It pays to go to Specsavers, they scare the shit out of you!  happy088
