Eyesight test for C1 Licence (1 Viewer)

[Emmit]

Question to be answered please.

I have to jump through the hoop of Medical and eyesight test before the start of May this year to maintain my licence.

If I go to the Opticians within three months of my Birthday, will this 'do' for the purpose of the continuation of the licence or will I have to go through it all over again.

My requirement to know the answer is that I do wish to get new specs and don't want to wait until May.

Regards

The D4 form (medical and eye test) can be done up to four months before licence due. This may help https://www.gov.uk/government/publi...ner-report-for-a-lorry-or-bus-driving-licence

I went to Specsavers and when I made the appointment, I told them there & then that I wanted the eye examination for my driving licence renewal at 70 and did not want any specs, only the prescription and the examiner to complete & sign page 2 of the form D4.
"No problem" came the reply.

You will of course have to have a paper copy of form D4 to take with you which can be obtained from DVLA.

Derek, because I have to have a yearly eye test I took the form along to my opticians and they just filled it in. I’d had a recent eye test though.

Exactly what I did and no charge.
