A friend is using a VDU and computer for seven hours on three days each week as part of her employment.
How often should she have an eye test/
Should her employer pay for this test/.
Should her employer pay for or make a contribution towards the cost of glasses?
I know a risk assessment should be done on the work station. Should this include reference to the eye tests?
Please include reference to law orHSE documents.
I am now retired and have not kept up date on H & S so cannot give her any advice.

Grumps,
it is covered by 'Health and Safety (Display Screen Equipment) Regulations 1992 as amended by the Health and Safety (Miscellaneous Amendments) Regulations 2002'. I have attached link to HSE Guidance
