I congratulate Ministers on the extra money that will be put into the work of optometrists, who will get extra money to check for problems such as AMD in the elderly. Even in my constituency, outwith England, one optometrist offers X-rays to his patients. However, will that money be paid year on year? In conversations with optometrists, they say that it is great to have the money, but they are worried that it will stop at the end of the year and they will have raised people's expectations of services that will not continue.
