Free eye test at Asda

Once you have your prescription from Asda visit speckyfoureyes.com for complete single vision glasses at £20! You can upgrade with transitions lenses, bi-focal or varifocal or choose designer frames at a fraction of shop prices!

According to the storefinder my nearest Asda optician is 112 miles, would it be worth it?

hi there!

i'd highly recommend https://www.optical4less.com for really funky inexpensive glasses. they come from hong kong, but only take a week to be delivered - high quality frames and lenses at a fraction of the high street cost (i got 2 pairs of really smart glasses - frames and lenses - with delivery + a hard case and cloth for £20) The styles are very unusual and of all the pairs of glasses i have had over the years, paying £120-150 per pair, the ones from optical4less are the ones that people have complimented me on the most!

Only relevant to England and Wales. All eye tests are free in Scotland

Not sure about Ireland.

if you get your eye prescription you could also try speckyfoureyes.co.uk or .com, thats another cheap glasses supplier on the net have seen advertised (not 100% sure on the spelling, but that was the name)

Incidentally, if you work with computers, you should also be entitled, I believe, to an eye test paid for by your employer - although they tend to keep quiet about this.....

I've used https://www.spex4less.com for cheap glasses after an eye test at Specsavers (paid for by my employer as I use computers a lot). Spex4less have been very good if frames have been damaged, e.g. a screw loose (the frames that is!) and have repaired, even replaced, very quickly without question. They're a UK company if that helps anyone concerned about buying from abroad, but having said that I'll be looking at some of the links given by others next time.

Mine did - I stumbled across it by accident. It also said that I could only have an eye test every two years. So far, I've hada test every year for the last 6 years and my employer has paid for it.
You have to remember, it's the optician who says how often you are to have a test, not your employer. Most people can get away with 2 years, as I already have double-glazing, my optician said to go every year (and they send me a reminder card)
