Specsavers Corporate Eyecare has over 20 years of experience delivering our eyecare services to public sector organisations including Central Government, Councils, NHS Trusts, Emergency Services and many more.

How it works for public sector organisations

Our eyecare scheme makes it simple and straightforward for employees to access eyecare services at any one of our Specsavers stores in the UK.

We offer a wide range of eyecare solutions to suit all public sector requirements including VDU eyecare, safety eyecare and drivers eyecare. We have different VDU options that you can select from to provide single vision or multifocal lenses.

Our eyecare scheme is not simply about providing eye tests to your employees, we have a wealth of information that can be shared with you to educate employees on the importance of regular eyecare and offer detailed Account Management support packages.

Here's how your organisation can benefit

Specsavers is an accredited supplier for the Government Commercial Agency - which means we provide a solution for a range of occupational health services, employee assistance programmes and eyecare requirements.

Our services are available on the Occupational Health and Related Services Dynamic Purchasing System (known as a DPS) (RM6296).

As a public sector organisation, you have the option of using the DPS to choose the service that best fits your needs.

Do you work for the NHS?

If you work for the NHS, you might wonder if this entitles you to discounted or free eyecare services.

Can NHS workers get a free eye test?

Unfortunately, NHS staff aren’t automatically entitled to an NHS-funded eye test. However, if you meet the general qualification criteria you will be eligible for a free eye test. 

Find out if you qualify and if so, what you need to do to receive your free eye test

Do NHS workers get free glasses?

Again, unfortunately, NHS staff aren’t automatically entitled to NHS-funded glasses. Some people will be entitled to an NHS optical voucher that helps to cover the cost of glasses or contact lenses.
