It’s an exciting time in your life when you’re applying for your learner driver's license. After all, a car represents freedom and independence. Whatever age you are, getting a driver’s license usually signals a positive change in your life. However, along with learning all the road signals, and how to safely drive, everyone who is applying for their driver learner permit needs to present an eye test.

These eye tests need to be completed by a registered optometrist or a medical practitioner. For the convenience of our clients, our Dublin optometrist offers eye tests for car licenses. In this blog we’d like to answer some of the common questions we get asked about this test.

Whether you’ve worn glasses all your life or have recently got a prescription for your first pair, it’s important to choose the right frame shape to complement your face.

The best way to make sure your select the appropriate frames is to speak to one of our customer service team members in our Dublin opticians. However, to make sure you have a working understanding of which glasses will work with your face, we’ve put together a quick reference guide.
