👁️🚗 Mandatory Eyesight Testing for Older Drivers – What You Need to Know

If you’re an older driver, or supporting a loved one who is, it’s important to understand the rules around eyesight and driving in the UK.

At present, drivers aged 70+ self-declare that they meet these standards when renewing their licence – but there is increasing discussion around introducing mandatory eyesight testing for older drivers to help improve road safety.

👁️ Why regular eye tests matter:

Even small changes in vision can happen gradually and go unnoticed. Conditions such as cataracts, glaucoma, or macular degeneration can affect driving ability long before symptoms are obvious.

The UK Government is considering significant changes to the way older drivers demonstrate that they meet the eyesight standards required for driving safely.

👁️ Eye Care Everywhere: Local Access Matters

At Lesley Cree Opticians, we’re proud to support the Eye Care Everywhere campaign by the Association of Optometrists.

Everyone deserves quick, easy access to expert eye care—right on their local high street. But across England, access to NHS eye care services still varies depending on where you live. That needs to change.

This campaign is calling for:

✔️ Equal access to eye care services in every community
✔️ More support for local optometrists to treat eye problems
✔️ Long-term investment in NHS eye health

Because your eye health shouldn’t depend on your postcode.

Join us in supporting better, fairer access to care for all. 💙

We are proud to support the Eye Care Everywhere initiative and advocate for a future where every patient can receive expert care quickly and conveniently.
