Eyesight: Testing
(asked on 9th March 2015) - View Source
Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:
To ask Her Majesty’s Government what plans they have to reform the Primary Ophthalmic Services Regulations 2008 to ensure that entitlement for additional services includes requests made by eligible persons attending special schools.
This question was answered on 18th March 2015
At present there are no plans to reform the Primary Ophthalmic Services Regulations 2008. It is already the case that under the General Ophthalmic Services Contract Regulations 2008, contractors can contract with NHS England to provide sight testing services within such schools.
