I had an optometry appointment at Selly Oak about 2 months ago. The appointment was booked through the RMC at ISK and involved a 20 minute appointment with a civilian optician in the eye department, followed by a 15 minute appointment with an Army doctor.
I still have to buy my contact lenses at the local opticians in Elgin! I don't have a problem buying the lenses, just the two days travelling to and from Birmingham from Kinloss to use the same lenses that a local optician prescribed for non flying duties months ago.
