I only ever see an optom, only times since my first visit where I did see the surgeon has been on my two trips to eye casualty!

Get a check up next Tuesday but I think i will only see the optom as I have had absolutly no real lens issues to speak of for 6 months now. This is great considering this time last year I was still battling an alergic reaction to my lenses and could only wear them for a couple hours per day. Now average 12 hours so will have to come clean :lol:

I think the answer is probably No althou officially from the NHS they would probably say Yes.

Just me personal opinion :D
