Ms Dari Taylor: To ask the Secretary of State for Health how many senior citizens in Stockton, South have received (a) free
eye tests and (b) assistance for glasses and contact lenses since 1997. [215313]
Miss Melanie Johnson: Figures for the number of sight tests and vouchers by constituency and for senior citizens are not collected
centrally. The nearest available is for patients aged 60 and over for sight tests, at former health authority (HA) or current
primary care trust (PCT) levels.
The table shows the number of national health service sight tests paid by Tees HA for the years ending 31 March 2000 to 2003
and the four PCTs covering the Stockton South constituency for the year ending 31 March 2004.
General ophthalmic services: number of sight tests paid by HAs and primary care PCTs covering the Stockton South constituency for
patients aged 60 and over for the years ending 31 March 2000 to 2004
_________________________________________________________________________________________________.
HA name/ Number of sight tests for aged 60 and over
PCT name (thousand)
1999-2000 Tees HA 40.9
2000-01 Tees HA 39.8
2001-02 Tees HA 42.5
2002-03 Tees HA 42.9
2003-04 North Tees PCT 13.2
Hartlepool PCT 10.7
Middlesbrough PCT 15.3
Langbaurgh PCT 10.1
2003-04 Total 49.3
_________________________________________________________________________________________________.
Notes: 1. Eligibility for NHS sight tests was extended to patients aged 60 and over from 1 April 1999. PCTs took over
responsibilities from HAs in October 2002. 2. Sight tests can not be equated to the numbers of patients. Although most people do not
come back for a sight test within the year, some patients suffering from medical conditions are advised to have re-examinations
sooner. 3. Patients aged 60 and over are not eligible for free NHS optical vouchers for help towards glasses or contact lenses on
age grounds. However, some patients will be eligible under other category such as adult income support, Pension Credits guarantee
credit or holders of HC2/HC3 certificates. It is not possible to break down voucher numbers by age for these categories.
