I went to book an eye test today as I have not had one for a while (the last one was over two years ago when I was working)

I was happy to hear that I could have one done straight away although I would have to wait 15 minutes.
How bad, sez I, 15 minutes is not bad.

When I told them I was now unemployed and would have to use my medical card, I was told I’d have to fill
out a form and send it to the health board. This would normally take around 8 WEEKS to be approved.

From 15 minutes to 8 weeks. dunno.gif

That’ll teach me to be jobless. sad.gif

BTW (that’s by the way Pete ohmy.gif ) in case he reads the forum, the guy in the shop was sound. good.gif

Thats a HSE issue,the Optician wont be paid by the HSE for your eyetest unless you are pre-approved,and the waiting time for approval is what holds you up,BTW there must be some serious cuts in the HSE in Cork cos when I left 4 months ago the waiting time was 4 weeks,mind me asking what part of the city you are from??

You know where Abbey Court house is?? Across from College of Comm.Go there and ask for Optical benefit Northside section,they should approve it on the spot for ya,its not uncommon for them to tell ya you have to wait but most times you will get it done on the spot.
