Fund free or heavily subsidised prescription glasses and lenses for people who rely on them every day, similar to how essential medical devices are supported. We call on the government to help reduce the cost burden so no one has to struggle to afford the sight they need to live and work.

We believe good eyesight is essential for daily life, work, education and safety, yet glasses and lenses are often expensive, and that people who rely on them have no choice but to buy them, unlike optional items. We think making them free or subsidised would ensure everyone can see clearly, avoid accidents, and take part fully in society without being held back by cost.
