Where's a good place to get them tested,free preferably,...or should i just go to see my doctor.
Basically i had a medical today and want a second opinion,especially on the hearing side

Thanks

Only if you are within a certain age range - not sure if OAP's get free eye test, I know that under 16 and in full time education you do.....possibly if you are on certain benefits - if you have certain illnesses........ummmm that is only guess work though.

If you are fit and healthy and between 16 and 65 you have **** all chance of a free one

Go on, some one correct me

Check your work policy too, because I worked with VDU screens I was entitled to a free eye test on health and safety blurb type documentation in the hand books we were given.....

Thanks Chelle....IIRC i remember reading about free eye tests in some works literature,(i use a pc at work).Will follow that one up.

As for the hearing,i had one of those hearing tests today where you have to press a button when you hear the noise,etc.......both me any my mate were told we have the hearing of someone around 45 years old..IMO the test was a bit 'iffy'........just want a second opinion.
