Are you are a regular 'patient' with them? If so then they are keeping your eyesight as important. If for some reason you went blind, then someone would find a way to charge them with neglect.

The eye check consultation will be bulk billed, it's their way of keeping up their government sourced revenue.

I've been getting the same from OPSM for years, I refuse to go back to them just because of the way they push.

Also there should be an unsubscribe option but there isn't one on the emails or the text messages.

These days I never give my phone number or email to any retail style shop, sometimes I give a false number just to shut them up, pity the person that has that number.

So its you that's been giving out my number .............

Wife did same, different mob for prescription sunnies, perfect

I get a reminder from Specsavers to have a check up. There's an unsubscribe link.

I like having the check up. I like to know what condition my eyes are in.

I had laser surgery 25 years ago to correct short sightedness. It amazed me then how good my eyesight turned out, and it amazes me still that I have better than 20:20 vision. Such a good thing.

I appreciate the reminders as it is upto me to react or not.
Fortunately on 2 occasions Specsavers optometrist identified a ptyrigium successfully removed. Yesterday due to extensive examination based on a suspicion of an issue a very small hole was identified in my retina this is common in old farts and all that have had heavy blow to an eye. As a kite and SUP foiler hard to wonder how this could happen
One more benefit, at my annual skin check a melanoma was identified in its early stages resulting in a positive result from a biaopsi then removal, now all good.
Is all this a con, I'll leave it to all to consider - I am ok with it.
Age creates issues but more leisure time so look after yourself when younger for a longer time on the water.

I can't see, anything wrong with that?
