The link says a free "NHS Funded eye test". Aren't they just for people under 18, in full time education or on benefits?

Yes you do.
Only free if your on your last legs or your under 18 and still get funding from your parents!
Makes Sense... Not!

For years, specsavers told me to keep wearing glasses, get contact lenses, come in once a year for appointments, until I turn 18 when (if my eyesight didn't make large jumps) I could get laser eye surgery. They persisted against getting laser eye surgery once I turned 18 (and for a few years after) as my eyes were not in a good enough condition, and to just continue on contact lenses and glasses.
Then a new older optometrist in Specsavers did my eye test one year, and was amazed at why I hadn't considered laser eye surgery yet after looking at my history and current status. I told him I was advised against it by Specsavers staff and he said nonsense. Had 2 more third party opinions from an optometrist and ophthalmologist and they both agreed it could have been done before.
Haven't trusted them since, and am so glad i've undertaken laser eye surgery. Be wary of false positives!
Sorry rant over >_<
