Just wondering, I really need to get them checkd out as my vision in one eye is noticeably worse than the other, and I'm getting major headaches doing 10 hour days on computers

edit:I'm based in sutton coldfield birmingham

Dunno, but I noticed that registering on Vision Express' site gets you a half price eye test and 10% off glasses.

If you work for a company they have a duty to pay for an eyetest and also to provide specs if required for computer work. DSE regs.

What he said. The company pays. I stick mine on expenses. But the OH gets a voucher once a year from HR. I bet your self employed though!

I can do an eye test for you.

Cover one eye and click this link...

...now cover the eye (whilst uncovering the first eye rolleyes) and click the link again.

If you vomited twice your eyes are fine, if you got wood at any time during the test you need some eye furniture.
