I have a question in regards to P.I.P. and things like opticians and dentistry, do I qualify for help with these things? Thanks community

Hi @wednesdaycat welcome to the community, hope you're well today!

Do you claim any other benefits other than PIP?

The free prescriptions and eye tests are usually for people on income-related benefits like Universal Credit or Income-based ESA. There's a checker to see if you might be entitled here:

Check what help you could get to pay for NHS costs - NHSBSA

Hope you'll enjoy your time on the community ☺️

Hi

I am on pip and I don't get 'help' with anything.

I have to pay for it.
