What do employers have to do to comply?
On request arrange eye tests, and provide spectacles if special ones
are needed
Employees covered by the Regulations can ask their employer to provide and pay
for an eye and eyesight test. This is a test by an optometrist or doctor. There is
also an entitlement to further tests at regular intervals; the optometrist doing the
first test can recommend when the next should be. Employers only have to pay for
spectacles if special ones (for example, prescribed for the distance at which the
screen is viewed) are needed and normal ones cannot be used.
