The DVLA (The Driver and Vehicle Licensing Agency) will issue a health condition update in the coming weeks, according to reports.
Optometry Today has said it will release updated guidance in relation to its list of notifiable eye conditions. It comes after the AOP (Association of Optometrists) raised serious concerns over the published list, so extensive that it could apply to almost every driver who receives a sight test.
The AOP has requested an urgent review from the DVLA, stating “if the current guidance remains in place, almost every driver who receives a sight test will need to be advised to notify the DVLA.”
