Petition Regular eye tests, glasses and contact lenses should be covered by the NHS

More details

We believe that people regardless of age or occupation who suffer from bad eyesight (and therefore need assistance to see) should not have to pay for regular eye tests or glasses/contact lenses. We feel that paying for the basic right to see is unfair, especially to those who are on low incomes.
