Thought I would post this in case anyone else has the same problem.

I thought it was time my Mum had an eye test and was told by the Ward that because Mum was under the NHS I had to use "their" optician, i.e. Specsavers. I went along with this although I would have preferred her own optician to do it.

Specsavers could not go to do the test for a few weeks and my own optician could go today.

I phoned the Ward and advised them that I did not think the Health Board were allowed to stipulate which optician I use.

Outcome is they agreed and Mum's own optician is going out today.
