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!

Tescos are always free and specpammers charge twice as much for contact lenses COLD

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 >_<

I'm not surprised. I wouldn't trust a supermarket to properly test my eyes either!

The downside about Specsavers, is the "glass" they use in their glasses is cheap sh1t or it's ground by FWs.
Or maybe it's a industry standard.

they use cheap **** for contacts, I compared them before leaving their scheme, so I'm not surprised about their glasses

Nothing new. I frequently find free eye test vouncher in local parish magazines and also on back of the car parking tickets, have never paid for tests and don't expect to because they keep finding ways to flog free test vouchers here and there.

Yes its a marketing tactic to get you through the door - a 'loss leader' if you like. They make their money from glasses sales, contact lenses etc.

Free eye test, yes. But they try and sell you unnecessary products

So is this free for someone who usually pays, the NHS funded eye test part has confused me?

It's free everywhere! Hey I'm going to post a freebie too, free air!

No it's not. Walk into a Specsavers or Vision Express without a voucher and you'll have to pay, unless you get it on the NHS.

What else would you do unless you found a voucher like this?
kittykat69
5 Feb 16#33
You don't need a voucher! Most people know it's free in Tescos anyway, they advertise everywhere!

5 Feb 16#34
You claimed it was free 'Everywhere'. Tesco is not everywhere, it's one store.

I went to Tesco's optician and they over-prescribed telling me I needed new glasses.. I started getting headaches, went back to previous specs and had no more problems.

Is this valid in all specsavers or is it store specific?
Steph312 to shazspice
16 Feb 16#41
it's store specific when I put my postcode in the closest store doesn't have this offer, but the second store does. sometimes they do send universal leaflets out for all branches.

I can't seem to find the free eye test deal on their offers page, has it been removed?

Not all stores are showing the voucher. I queried this with 2 stores they said just bring it inand it will be honoured as my local only had the £10 eye test showing. Im not paying for air to be blown in my face. Hope that helps you.
