[QUOTE="catherinecherub, post: 692485"] The retinal testing should be yearly but it is rather a grey area about the NHS eye tests. This article from NHS says If you are concerned about your sight before your next NHS sight test is due, you should visit your ophthalmic practitioner. The ophthalmic practitioner will be able to carry out an NHS sight test earlier than planned, if it is considered clinically necessary. If you want a sight test more often than your ophthalmic practitioner considers clinically necessary, you will have to pay for a private sight test. How often can I have a free NHS eye test?
