The latest College advice and resources on driving and vision
Recent media reports on vision and driving have again highlighted the important role that optometrists have to play in assessing visual fitness to drive.
Although optometrists are only carrying out essential or emergency/urgent eye care at the moment, we recommend that anyone concerned about their vision should contact their practice via phone for advice. We would also recommend that they use our home sight test chart to check their vision safely ahead of a remote consultation. We have produced a video to help patients use it correctly.
