    Hi....

    Am working in an office (over 10 years now) and find that numbers are getting hard to read and so might need Glasses soon. Question:

    1. What will PRSI do for me.. Free Test ??? Free Glasses
    2. What are my entitlements from my Employer if using PC Screens solidly in work for over 10 years??
    3.Why are Glasses so expensive ... colleagues say 'I paid over €300 for my glasses'. Is it the lens, the frames or the name???
    4. Can I get tested in one shop and buy elsewhere??? Will they give me the results to pass to another retailer??

    Many thanks

    1. Free test.
    2. None if you mean anything from your employer.
    3. Depends on the frame, the lens etc, if you need varifocals, they are very expensive, single vision are usually included in the cost of the frame.
    4. Yes, and yes.
