Checking qualifications and registration
Optometrists and dispensing opticians in the UK must be registered with the General Optical Council (GOC), which sets standards for training and conduct. You can confirm that a practitioner is registered by searching the GOC register online. Many practices also employ optical assistants who work under the supervision of a registered professional, and some offer NHS-funded sight tests to those who are eligible, such as children, people over 60, and those on certain benefits.
What to consider when choosing a practice
When comparing opticians, it can help to check whether the practice offers advanced diagnostic equipment such as Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT), which can detect eye conditions earlier than a standard test. Consider the range of frames and lenses stocked, whether contact lens schemes or payment plans are available, and how aftercare and follow-up appointments are handled. Reading recent reviews and confirming appointment availability and accessibility can also inform your decision.
How often should I have an eye test?
For most adults, the NHS recommends an eye examination at least every two years, though your optometrist may advise more frequent tests based on your age, health or existing eye conditions. Children and people with conditions such as diabetes may be advised to attend more often.
Am I entitled to a free NHS sight test?
You may qualify for an NHS-funded sight test if you are under 16, aged 60 or over, receive certain benefits, or have specific medical conditions such as diabetes or glaucoma. The practice can confirm your eligibility and explain any charges before your appointment.
