Topic: Eye Care
Optometry Today reports that more than "20% of Britons have put off or cancelled an appointment with the optometrist due to concerns about cost, and a further 16% have delayed getting eyewear when a new prescription has been required, a survey has shown. The study, commissioned by health insurance providers Health365.com, surveyed 1,000 employed adults in the UK about the cost of healthcare. Almost half of those questioned (43%) thought eye tests were free for all and, more generally, 77% of those quizzed said they were concerned about the price of healthcare."
