Vision Express NHS Discounts & Deals for November 2026

Get access to free NHS eye tests with Vision Express. NHS & health service staff can enjoy a complimentary eye test plus exclusive savings on glasses, sunglasses and contact lenses. Whether it’s for work or everyday wear, discover trusted optician offers designed for healthcare professionals.

For health service staff: Vision Express

Between back-to-back shifts, eye care is easy to put off, even though your eyes do a lot of close, careful work under bright lights. Vision Express covers the things you actually need: a new pair of glasses with an eye test included, or sunglasses and contact lenses for days off and time away.

If you're coming off a run of night shifts, a glasses mix-up or a lost pair of contacts is the last thing you need.

This is for everyone in the health service, in every role, whether you're clinical or non-clinical, full time, bank staff or newly qualified. It covers the everyday things, not just treats, which is exactly where savings should be.
