Supporting Evidence

Hello,
I need advice regarding supporting evidence letter for PIP.
My GP basically told me: they do not know what to write, they have no clue about benefits, I need to tell them what is needed.
My brain is frozen solid when comes to dealing with the benefits system
Is there any advice I could read or, maybe someone would be so kind to give mi some points, how to deal with this. My supporting evidence from specialists is outdated - 2016 - 2018 - They cant help me - no cure - so I don't see them. Currently they do not accept re-referrals of patients due to Covid

They say less is more and not to send reems of evidence. The only thing I sent was a prescription list and a letter from my consultant detailing my treatment and that I am partially sighted and also a OH care needs report
Good luck hope you get it sorted
That one phone call won the appeal anyway!
My point is, you don't always need a ton of evidence from doctors who don't have insight to how things are.
Hope things go well for you, don't be put off!
