Hi guys, renewal coming up as my 3 year license is soon to be expired. Having a some paranoia over what the outcome will be, so just looking for some reassurance; can you guys post up what boxes you ticked and what the outcome was? Feel like this thread may offer a lot of help people!
Cheers guys.
 
Did mine on-line for the first time last year. It is pretty straight forward and shouldn't really be anything to worry about.
 
Hi @Ribby_c ,

Welcome to the forum.

Been doing this every 3 years since passing my test back in late 1986? (Though i do empathise with your feelings about it when renewal time comes around..)
The whole process gets quicker & quicker with DVLA.
You filled out the DIAB1 form with no issues of hypos needing medical assistance, you are hypo awair & no eye issue needing treatment. (or failing treatment.)
All in all. if your doc has no reservasions about your fitness to drive.

Then i wish you many years of happy & safe motoring! :)
 
And some (potential) good news from DVLA.

They currently have an online "Fitness to Drive" portal in Beta at the moment which should streamline the process even more.

Well I had a more complicated eye issue or so I thought. I had laser in both eyes one year after renewal. I had an DVLA eye test n all was ok. Hope that helps.
