You should have a full eye test every 2 years, or more often if you have any existing eye problems.  If you notice that your vision is getting blurry, or that your glasses no longer seem to work as well as they did before then you should book an eye test as soon as possible, as poor vision can strain your eyes and cause headaches and other problems.

If you wear contact lenses you will also need a regular contact lenses test, which is slightly different from a full eye test and should be carried out alongside your regular 2 yearly eye checkups.
