Hi All.
Do any of you get a voucher for NHS glasses? Not sure if l have read somewhere that if you suffer with diabetes you are entitled to claim & get help with new glasses. Thanks x
 
No it is an eye test you are entitled to, not the cost of the glasses.

You can have a free eye test and help towards costs for glasses if you are on income based benefits. Hope that helps.
