HC Deb 13 March 1952 vol 497 c157W
93. Mr. Edward Davies

asked the Minister of Health whether, under his regulations, a National Health Service patient may have his own spectacles frame repaired or glazed, provided it conforms to the requirements of the ophthalmic service.

Miss Hornsby-Smith

Any frame may be repaired under the Service provided there are suitable National Health Service spare parts available. As regards glazing, suitable old National Health Service frames may be used for new National Health Service lenses.
