[QUOTE="HSSS, post: 2276477, member: 480869"] Sorry but I think you kind of have read it wrong and are mixing up different things. There's three tests. One is the normal “free to diabetics“ Nhs eyesight test done is opticians Then there’s the diabetic retinopathy screening test all diabetics get annually for free. This might be at the hospital, a local venue or in some areas at an opticians. You are invited by letter and it’s free. This is the one with stingy drops. The other is the OCT test that specsavers charge for and one use for this is an even more detailed look at the eye checking for retinopathy amongst other conditions. [/QUOTE]
