<p>The NHS optical voucher scheme provides financial support by way of a voucher to
eligible persons to help them buy goods such as spectacles. The vouchers are simply
a means of financial support; the VAT consequences result from the goods and services
that the voucher is used to buy. Therefore, VAT exemption will apply to the eye test,
fitting services and any medical treatment of an eye condition and VAT will apply
to the spectacles, irrespective of how payment is made.</p><p> </p>
