HC Deb 21 April 1943 vol 388 c1706W
Mr. Douglas

asked the Secretary of State for War whether he has considered the letter from the hon. Member for North Battersea, dated 1st April, relating to a soldier who is suffering from a serious affection of the eyes and is not receiving treatment for it; and what action he is taking in the matter?

Mr. A. Henderson

Yes, Sir. A reply was despatched last Monday in which it was explained that this man was examined by ophthalmic specialists in June and December, 1942, and that spectacles have been prescribed for him.
