DVLA urges eye tests.
The BBC reported this morning:
'UK drivers are being urged to test their eyesight after a DVLA survey suggested 50% of motorists were not aware of the minimum standards needed for a licence.'
... Drivers must be able to read a number plate from 20m (65ft) away. But the agency's survey found only half of drivers knew about the eye test and used it to regularly self-check, as they are legally required to do.
Those who do not pass the test should visit an optician, a DVLA doctor said.
Learner drivers must pass the eye test as part of their practical exam - and are then legally obliged to ensure their sight remains good enough to drive thereafter.
The DVLA's Wyn Parry warned vision can "naturally deteriorate over time", adding that regular checks to ensure good eyesight were "essential for safe driving".
■ Drivers 'should have compulsory eye tests every decade'
■ Number of drivers aged over 90 tops 100,000 for first time
■ Driver 'blamed Specsavers' after fatal crash
Performing the test can be done on any street and only takes "a couple of seconds", said Dr Parry.
Five car lengths is said to roughly match the 20m distance, with drivers being encouraged to use the measure to test their vision on the number plates of passing cars.
Drivers over the age of 70 must actively make a declaration every three years that they are fit to drive - but do not actually have to pass a test.
We think this is really simple. Make an appointment with us, have a full eye test and stay safe.

Walter has a new lease of life!
Don't ask me why, but this is one of our vans which has always been known as Walter. Walter is 18 years old, which in "Van Years" makes him an extremely old gentleman.
Over the last few years Walter probably hasn't been as involved as he once was and we had probably slightly sidelined him. He was always there in the backrground and he never let us down.
... But now, thanks to our Hearing Care service, Walter is a new van. Its amazing what great Hearing Care can do!
